I designed 3D printed components to mount my ITX + 3080 + SFX to an IKEA Skadis pegboard, so it can be wall-mounted behind my TV.

Is there enough airflow on the backside of the GPU?

You don't really need any airflow there. The only thing that gets hot there is memory, but that is already cooled through the PCB (good heat conductor because of the copper), which is cooled by the regular heat sink.

While that’s true for the card in the image, flow-through GPUs absolutely do exist - Nvidia FE cards, particularly.

Yeah but you can see in the picture the GPU has spacers. The riser cable goes under it and you can see where the rear IO sits that there.is space there.

There is a 20mm space from the GPU’s backboard to the pegboard, should be enough
