Hello all. Hope everyone had a good new year. I've had my Velox for around two weeks or so now and I am loving it. I had a quick question in terms of the chassis. When I play demanding titles, my 3080 can hit upwards of 81-83 degrees. I know this is technically not dangerous levels but it on the border of throttling the card. I'm wondering if anyone has ever added additional fans to their Velox. Looking at the chassis, I'm not even sure where I would add them. I just would like to keep the card below 80 degrees. I'm considering just under-volting the card but I don't want a big hit to performance.

Thanks!

Have you thought about changing the fan profile? Granted my GPU is 2 generations ago, but I use the EVGA PrecisionX 16 to keep the card cool. If my card gets to 80° the fans hit 100%. I've rarely seen temps in the 80s.

Having said all that, you've got a much better GPU so I'm assuming much better cooling for it. Just something to consider before you start 'under-volting'.
