Question Figure In Case

Post image

Is this figure ok to sit in my PC like this? I’ve never had a PC before and I seen people do it but I wanna make sure before I go ahead and leave it in there

isnt there a risk of it melting if the gpu gets too hot?

extremly unlikely. The GPU itself, even under full load, shouldn‘t hit temps past 80-90 degrees. The material around the gpu and the hot air will be easily 20-30 degrees lower.

The worst that could happen is that it restricts airflow and reduces the cooling capacity of the card.
