I just put in a new GPU and my CPU temps are now at 95°C. The room is around 68°F. I’m using the Phanteks P400 setup with front-2, top-2 out, rear-1 out. My stock Ryzen 5800X Stock 3090Ti FE CM is running at 240°C. I know about the P400A mesh front panel but am wondering if it will really help with cooling the GPU. Any advice?

For scientific purposes, removing the front panel would expose the internal components to environmental factors such as temperature changes.

Hello! It seems the issue might stem from hot air moving through the liquid cooler when the exhaust is set to the radiator side. The RTX 3090Ti generates a lot of heat, which could be the main reason for the high CPU temperatures. You might want to switch the rear fan to exhaust mode and adjust the front intake fans to run faster, as the rear is better at releasing heat than drawing in air. Let me know if this addresses your concern. Cheers! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*

Typically, you aim for smooth air movement inside a case by encouraging more straightforward airflow, or "the path of least resistance." Since both your front and back fans draw in air, their streams meet and cause turbulence, which can trap hot air from the GPU. Adjusting the rear fan could help improve this situation.

Your back needs to be straight, not bent.

What I was doing at the time was smoking, but the rear fan isn't working. I'll update the post.

For clarity, please include images of your configuration that display the flow path and direction.

Temperature reads 85.5C with no front panel exposed during an AIDA64 Stress Test

Regarding the performance of your 5900X on CB R23 with 87C and PBO, and 76C without it, the P400 suggests improvement could be beneficial. The board doesn’t seem optimized for airflow, but that’s what others mentioned about my 4000X Corsair—it kept the 5900X stable until it faced issues. I believe you’ll need better airflow capacity.

Position the AIO at the front intake for optimal performance. The FE coolers draw air upward from the bottom of the enclosure. When the fan closes to the IO bracket, it utilizes that airflow as exhaust. The opposite fan runs straight up to the top of the case and connects to the AIO if it's placed there.
