If you take off your front grill, the GPU performance drops by 5 degrees. It might seem unnecessary, but there could be a reason behind this design choice.

Laskoir :
If I take off my front grill, the GPU runs 5 degrees lower. Why would I even leave it on? Is there a reason behind this design?
Is it for dust protection? The main reason could be because the front grill is full of dust?
Just a thought.
Cheers

Custom builds perform better at 70 than 75 in the long run.

75 degrees remains a secure temperature, just as comfortable as 70 degrees
