I have a Micro-ATX case for my PC and am a little skeptical that flow-through would well for that form factor because the intakes are on the bottom of the card.

- redisman 6y agoTrue - in my case I have intake fans at the bottom too so I was excited to see that
- twblalock 6y agoIt will probably be fine. I've used powerful graphics cards in super-cramped ITX cases and didn't have a problem. I think people overestimate how much cooling these things really need. Any temps below 80C at load are perfectly safe and shouldn't result in throttling -- the same is true for CPUs. If you aim for lower temps than 80C, you aren't going to get better performance, although lower temps are a good way to get your computer to run more quietly.
