Haha similar concept and this can go in (since minimum 5mm needed) but don't think practical as I'd need to ensure both the card's fans are covered.
The suggested Reddit solution was more DIY, something akin to getting a piece of thicker styrofoam, then pressing the card onto it so that the card leaves an imprint, then cutting out holes where the fans are.
3 deg is the best case scenerio provided u have cool air from the outside. Usually tests we see are done in foreign countries where their ambient temps are way cooler than SG. Further more he is using a slim profile (15mm fan)?
Here we can set the rpm almost double and still may not see any significant drop haha.
Yeap, slim fan then will have an even lesser impact.
Under a typical scenario, 3c is already excellent. Also, for increase in chassis air intake to change temps, the speed at which the air is blown onto the heatsinks must be faster. This means both the CPU and GPU fans must retrieve the fresh air at a faster rate.
If it made a big difference, that means the air intake was strongly lacking before, which causes the CPU and GPU to fight for air. This will cause a buildup in heat as the hot air is recycled and not dissipated.
While air temperature from outside plays a part, it would have also resulted in lower temps. Ultimately, we are looking at the difference between the two temperatures when it comes to cooling. This is why some benchmarks for temps measurements show change in temperature.

In the case of my setup, the GPU is drawing the cool air from the bottom of the case directly onto the GPU (after this picture was taken, the 15mm Noctua at the bottom was moved to the top as an exhaust above the CPU cooler, next to the A12x25):
I would need to play around with the speed of the 2 new15mm Arctic slims fans that I would use at the bottom intake to ensure that its supplying enough air to the GPU and not cause any issues/turbulence that would negatively affect the GPU cooling?

Anyone here buy noctua NF-A12x15 recently?
I notice pricing from Amazon SG , jump from $49 to $67.
You guys have any lobang for shopee / Lazada or aliexpress can get recent price?

A very wise choice buddy. Is not that you or I cannot afford Noctua NF A12 x 25.. it's of a very good build.
Sad but true, it did not perform as what I expected it to. First test done Oct & Nov 2020, it failed to perform. I gave it a benefit of doubt as I thought maybe is just a faulty fan which I've borrowed from a friend. So I bought one and did a second test Aug 2021. Again disappointed, that's where I stop testing noctua.
I did mount fans on rad to do the test but I find its a waste of time. plus do not wish to have more implication if I talk about my finding on the Noctua NF A12 x 25. btw is testing on actual temperature back then with a 5900x
Note : though I have not shown my video results on the Scythe Wondersnail, it does perform.. it's well build and it's just 1 degree higher compared to the XPG Gentle Typhoon. It was tested in my 5950x system. open bench test.
I might get troll over this as I do know there are handful of Noctua users out there, but how true are YouTubers to reviews on fans? Some I feel is marketing. Most reviews I see, they mentioned about specs, show db and end up with a graph. Talk over about it as how good they are. Everyone can do that, do unboxing, put up a graph and talk over it.
Anyway is up to personal decision. For me.. these are my results.

I just bought and played 90 mins of GOd of War and these were the temps. GPU temps I know are OK but can I ask if CPU temps in the 70s, and my NVMe temps in the 60s are also 'normal'?

Yes, ITX this temp is good liao. Only changing to better fans and AIO will lower the temp, but at the expense of spending more $$$ which i feel its not really needed now for you.

Thanks! I was a little concerned with the NVME temp so I decided to add a 92mm fan as intake on the rear panel, blowing towards the motherboard/CPU cooler side. I figured it was because the m.2 slot was in a dead spot, next to the GPU. Managed to drop the idle temp by 6C-8C (45C now, compared to 51-53 before) or so and when gaming (cos of the heat of the GPU, not so much the SSD itself), by another 5C (58 compared to 63 before)
