The 3090 will generate a lot of heat, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility of them being relatively quiet. After all, their size could allow AIB partners to use bigger fans than usual, reducing the noise.

As for the case, it does depend on the cooling you'll choose. An AIO cooler with a dual or triple radiator could be a problem, but if you can find a good one with a single radiator, that could solve some problems. For example, the Corsair H80, that comes with 2 fans, could be placed in place of the rear fan and relocate that case fan in the front to have 3 intakes at the front, improving the airflow in the case.

Front fans won't do me any good since the door is gonna be closed. I'm just gonna put a big radiator on top and prioritize cooling. Since I've switched to a completely dedicated gaming PC noise level isn't actually too much of an issue since it's not gonna be running all the time. It will probably be fine.

All I need now is a GPU and a CPU so I can actually start building it. And as soon as I do that I'll also buy my new TV. If only AMD wasn't so fucking slow.

If noise isn't a factor then a dual or triple radiator would take care of your CPU just fine. Your GPU will be another problem.

As the countdown comes to an end... There's something red in the air! Big Navi rumours perhaps?

Thanks, I'll try to describe it, GA104 cannot beat BIG NAVI.

I sure hope this is true cause we need some competition!

Remember, GA 104 = 3070, GA102 = 3080/3090

Like viv said, that means that Big Navi won't be able to touch the 3080/3090. A shame.

At the same time, is it brings competition in that segment and, for some miracle, there's a price war, then the top cards may lower their prices a bit in order to make them attractive.
