Hey man, could you please post your full specs? Also a picture would be helpfulReceived my 3090 built, in its Corsair case, the aio for the cpu is mounted right up against the intake fans on the front, is this normal or likely to be choking the air flow to the gp. I do have very idle temps 75+ on the zotac card.
any advice greatly appreciated

If you are on iPad, take the picture, send it to yourself via mail and just select a quality under 1MB. That'll do itI’m on my iPad atm get it uploaded ASAP thanks

That’s great to hear after a pcs employee put this order together for me and “recommended” this set upMy guess is they mounted it on the front because of the RAM clearance causing issues placing it on the roof.
BUT, IMHO, it would be worth trying to mount it on the roof.
It's not the best designed PC, the case, motherboard and cooler are not a good match for the processor or the rest of the components.
Unfortunately it's high end GPU and CPU without the platform to support it, so temps are never going to be optimal.
Can you educate me on how this is the case? I’m not that tech savvy, should the build have been differentMy guess is they mounted it on the front because of the RAM clearance causing issues placing it on the roof.

Not without teaching you an awful lot about pc architecture.Can you educate me on how this is the case? I’m not that tech savvy, should the build have been different
Never trust a salesman for technical advice, it's world basics 101.Absolutely gutted after pcs sales recommended this, feel like I’ve wasted 3k now on a sub performing system following bad guidance
You trust the techies when asking for advice on tech.If you can’t trust the people you’re buying from who can you trust, tbh I may just return it all for refund
Never trust a salesman for technical advice, it's world basics 101.
But if you’re buying you don’t get the privilege of that do you, you speak to sales who clearly don’t know what they’re talking about, and pcs ethics maybe need a review, if they’re happy to keep selling sub par systems hyped up as being capable, how many other customers may be in the same situation, not a good business model is it, especially not these days. I will take it up with them and see what their resolution isYou trust the techies when asking for advice on tech.
