Hi guys, I bought a G1 Gaming RX480 and it gets quite hot. When I run Valley benchmark at 1390mhz with overclocked settings, it reaches around 85°C with 70% fans. If I remove the side panel, the temperature drops to about 81°C. The side panel has an intake hole but no exhaust, just one exhaust. My question is: if I get a cooler, would my GPU run cooler than without the panel or would it be similar or even worse?

putting more voltage on your card increases the heat it generates
I checked my GPU's and found they can handle 150+ cores and 500+ memory on dual 970s without raising voltage
my 1070 has higher overclocking than what I saw earlier, but I don’t remember exactly
it seems you might need an additional exhaust near the GPU
I’m not sure how many intake ports or fans you have, but airflow plays a big role here

I possess just one exhaust and none of the intakes. If I added an intake, it would directly impact the GPU, which doesn't necessarily make it more advantageous than the exhaust.

you need to bring in and in take fresh cool air from outside the case into the case, while the exhaust fan pushes it out.
my computers usually have the front as an intake and the back and top as the exhaust.
lacking any intakes is a major issue.
