I just posted this on another thread, but if anyone is looking to jump into this gen, the 7900XTX just hit $899.99 (click coupon): LINK /
I still wouldn't call that price "exciting", but it makes it probably the best value of this generation, at least at the moment, and as low of a bar as that is.

I saw it for $882 a few days ago. Had me tempted, but it would just be for epeen

Why not use r/buildapcsales

Saw that one, but figured so few people on here live near a MC that it wasn’t worth it
South Louisiana needs a MC

I've got one about 2 hours away in KC if there is ever a must have deal I'd make the drive up.

That's a thing of beauty. What are the specs? You may have already posted

How are your CPU temps when the GPU is under load?
I find the puzzle of air flow optimization in cases to be fascinating, so as soon as I saw your build, I started coming up with different configurations I would want to experiment with

I have not seen my CPU or GPU go above 70 degrees (going by the reported temp on the Aio display). I also installed the 12th/13th gen contact frame for better cooling as well. I’m also doing push-pull exhaust on the Aio as well.

Ah, didn't realize you were in push/pull. Doesn't really change my concern about the GPU exhaust, but does shift my concern about how much positive the pressure of the system was. Though with that said, what fans are you using? That's three fans more than your spec count
Posted on 6/25/23 at 1:26 pm to Joshjrn
Yea I used the nzxt Aio fans it came with to do the push pull… there are 9 120mm Sl uni fans and 3 140mm Sl uni fans… the three 140mm fans and 4 of the 120 fans are intaking air, and the the rest are exhaust. But the intakes have some mesh impeding flow. It’s probably slightly positive air pressure. Which I think is fine. With the amount of air flow volume the case has, I actually run my pc on the silent fan profile. Stays VERY silent even at load. It’s nuts.

I would say you're probably more than slightly positive, but it's fine either way. I just didn't know if your GPU pushing hot air directly up into your CPU cooler would cause you any issues.

I haven’t experienced any temp issues yet. I knew vertically mounting the GPU isn’t the best thermal wise, but 4090s come with giant overbuilt heat sinks anyway so I didn’t think the slight thermal performance hit offset the aesthetics of the vertical mount
Posted on 6/25/23 at 10:18 pm to LSUGent
My GPU is mounted vertically. No judgment there
GPUs put out a tremendous amount of heat, so they can significantly elevate your CPU temp if they exhaust directly into a CPU rad. But if you’re not having any issues with it, it’s nothing to worry about.

Damn these reviews for the 4060 have been brutal… nvidia really are greedy scum for trying to market a 4050 as a 60 series card. Dlss 3 is a nice feature, but it’s not worth the premium they’re asking people to pay
Posted on 6/28/23 at 6:09 pm to LSUGent
It’s what they’ve done all generation, outside of the 4090. The 3090 and 3080 were on the 102 die. The 4090 is the only sku on 102. The 4080 is on 103. The 3070 was on 103, now the 4070 is on 104. Etc, etc.
