It could lose effectiveness if left too long, settling and becoming less efficient over time. I’d suggest using it for no more than a year if you store it in the fridge upright to prolong its life. In my BIOS I haven’t changed anything beyond XMP, which helps RAM reach its full capacity. The room temperature is around 18°C (about 64°F). I own a 2060 Super with OCd, which adds some heat. Adding three extra fans might improve airflow in your setup.
Checking the fan curve in Windows or just BIOS. You mentioned your CPU fans: one spinning at about 6,000 RPM and another at 11,000 RPM.
Bios is the primary method for managing CPU fans. You could find other options, but I opted for Bios to cut down on unnecessary software. For my fans, I use Corsair's tools since I have a 680X case and came with a fan controller. I also installed ML120s for my front panel.
