I cannot fit all three of my GPUs with the middle GPU shroud on how should I cool it without it having fans.

liquid cooling
By getting rid of two of them.
Removing it.
Woth that setup, you seem pretty Hellbent on making the really hot
Fans up the ass. Trust me.
Send them to me, I’ll put water blocks on them. Lead time is unknown
Assuming this is for a workstation of some sort. I guess rendering or a similar task. You will probably have to water cool them
LLM’s?
A riser cable for the middle?
water cooling or u could get the PCIE extension cables and mount at least the middle one somewhere else
Realistic answer: water cooling
Fun answers: leaf blower, 3d printed cone, plenty of duct tape, and noise canceling headphones
nut on it
With a freezer
You should probably have sought to buy blower style cards instead of these. But you posted a photo below of the idea of attaching fans to the front side, it’ll work only if you get static pressure optimized fans.
Oh don’t worry I’ll cool them for you just send them all to me and I’ll send them back as soon as I am able to let go of them
Riser cable, mount them vertically in front of the 2 gpus.
Little advanced but you could try and model a manifold around the heatsinks and manifold the exhaust in fusion 360 and print it
Watercool them…. Just an option (not a good one but it’s there)
Fan shroud, mini turbines. Ear plugs.
Ceiling fan. Do it pls
I’d use risers to space them out and then put them in a rack mount case, you mention elsewhere you have a closet with exhaust. I’d just throw a 6-12u rack in there and use the included air cooling.
Have you thought about renovating your gaming room into a freezer?
If you don’t yet have any experience with custom water cooling, that setup is telling you it’s time.
You can put a fan infront of them. Get a case with good airflow. If you have a 3d printer you can print a shroud for a fan that pushes the air in between them. If that doesn’t work, then water cooling is your only solution
Liquid nitrogen, just keep it submerged
Didn’t know you could SLI 3 RTX cards together, unless I’m a dumbass and it’s being used for something else.
Liquid cooling is best for this style application
Which one?
A water bucket would be enough for thoose
I just thought, would you be able to mount one of them vertically? Just as an out of the box thought.
Buy 2 coolers
Another question witch way should I mount the cpu coolers

Either several radial fans or liquid cooling blocks.
if money isnt thing you ccan get away with some pretty good liquid cooling and if you are ion budget you can build used one for like 250 bucks
Are those 3 rtx 3080’s from hp?
You can dunk the whole thing into a bucket of mineral oil
I think that here you need to take out the video card chip and place them in special cases that will provide them with cooling
Tornado
well not like that, that’s for sure. either you need risers or water cooling
You normally figure all this out BEFORE you purchase your parts. I think the 3 GPU’s is for your ego as it won’t increase performance much.
If you need to ask, you’re probably not qualified to work on that sort of hardware.
Water cooling
As many have menioned, water cooling is the way to go.
The RTX 30 series and above have a blow through design. Meaning that the right most card will be enjoying the heat of both the other cards, whilst bareling being able to use it’s cooling because it’s squished up against a (also hot) backplate. Without the middle card it’s be fine with enough airflow. But you’re going to use all three cards.
Shower it daily with shampoo and conditioner 2 in 1 don’t forget to blow dry it when you’re done showering
This is why blower cards exist..
The obvious answer is to remove the fans (and any unnecessary plastic on the GPUs) and submerge the entirety in mineral oil – obviously with the appropriate housing (your power supply should be outside of the housing). You will also need the correct constant flow pump to maintain a target thermal exchange between the housing and and the external radiative tank – which you will also need.
Just make sure that the capacity (useable internal volume) of the housing can contain the necessary volume of oil for proper thermal dissipation for the GPUs and CPUs based on your needs, and that the housing is leakproof, and your external radiative tank can cool it quickly enough. With the right pump, it will be almost dead quiet.
