corsair 70c case

Fx8350 using corsair h100i

Asus 7970 crossfire using factor heatsink

AX 1200 psu

Aftermarket 8 120mm corsair fans

 

My pc is a oven. When I take the side window off its bearable, but when the case is all together my gpu's are running 90% fan speed most of the time. 

What can I do in order to have a intacted case with out crazy temps?

Was thinking of a bigger case like the 750d or a test bed with a box fan. 

Want to oc my gpu's but I don't like pushing my hardware without peace of mind on the cooling.

 

Only other option is 295x2 because I play 1440p gaming , just $$$$$$ is the issue.

 

Thanks

Are you saying you have 8x 120mm fans in this case and its not cool?

Thanks for the photo. I'll double check my fans and pull out hd trays.

I would have to say I had almost the same build as you before I upgraded. I used an obsidian 550D GREAT case imho. You might wanna check to see if your fans on the rad are working properly?

another thing that people often forget about is how their PSU is oriented. Bottom mount psu's can be flipped upside down so that they help exhaust air It will also help pull hot air away from your GPU's

Side note your psu is HUGE for your system. I only used a 650Watt I upgraded to an 850 when I upgraded my cpu to the 9590.

My psu is flipped for that purpose. 

Only thing I can do is turn my window tray 120mm fans pulling air out instead of in, remove my hd trays I'm not using letting the fans push more air to the gpu's, and take the 8th fan that's attached to the tray installing it on the bottom of the case next to the psu pulling more air out of the case away from the gpu.

Love my setup, but in retrospect I would have went with a larger case with at least one 240mm fan

Changes we're made gpu temps run are better.
