Aurora R10, RTX 3080 PCB, changing the cooler for better specs
Hi Guys,
I think the title is quite simple,
I have an Aurora R10 Ryzen 3000 series with an RTX3080 (i am lucky, i know)
The stock cooler of the card is a simple dual fan cooling system and can easily be overwhelmed by games, if you let the card go as fast as possible. I have found that in the past Dell used MSI PCBs for their card and so it was not complicated to swap the cooler for something with more performance.
So I am wondering if it is still the case, if someone swapped the cooler for a better solution ?
Thanks guys

Does it refer to a specific MSI model ? I don't find one with the same dimension.

Ok Thanks, i guess it is the regular rectangle design and not the one with the triangle notch we see on founder edition, so that means, any MSI compatible cooler should work on this card

"Here is another air cooled solution from that other forum"
My daughter would have a field day with all those loose wires to pull on. Joking aside, how do you manage to stay cool when all the room fans are pointed at the PC?
