My PC won't turn on because of the temperature

@clipper Here we are, good explanation and brief.

Going a step further with that topic, I currently have compartmentalized airflows.

The CPU cooler is not swallowing the hot air from the graphics card, this air is conducted directly to the back without barely contaminating the motherboard (M2 ram and chipset, but very little). The top front fan creates an exclusive tunnel for the top, from the edge of the backplate of the vga upwards and up to the exit of the CPU cooler.

The vga has separate intake and exhaust, it does not recirculate its hot flow, it feeds on fresh new air, the hot air that comes out of its cooler and its pcb comes out conducted directly towards the back of the case, and in addition the bottom front fan that feeds it with a flow independent of the top fan, produces a compartmentalized flow that allows to have very low temperatures without hardly using the noisy fans of the vga.

Result; I can play at night in a very very discreet way and with very good temperatures, in all components.

I admit that for now it is a cardboard prototype but it can perfectly be done with methacrylate or vinyl or another "more noble" material.

Manufacturers tried to do something similar once, but they did not put much interest in it to be honest, the usual thing, they wanted to charge a fortune for a nonsense badly applied and they would be afraid of going too far off the track and losing money against the competition.

@clipper What tower are you using?

@defaultuser a corsair icue 5000X
A whim on black friday.
Which, to be honest, has some serious flaws.
In my model (the front, sides, and top panel are glass) and the top panel makes it impossible to mount the R,L in push pull.
This is the one we discussed before:

I don't know how the finish will be.

Well, to be honest, it's a very high-quality tower, spacious, versatile, multipurpose, beautiful, etc., but it has silly flaws like a 20-euro tower.
For example, to leave it open for 12 or 14 fans, they simply make a hole that works for both, and when you put a 12, there's a margin that fits a finger and all, and the fan recirculates a lot of air in a silly loop,
(even so, they have taken into account that a 14 fan won't have any 12 profile right in front of the blades, positive point).
If we remove the glass, this effect is reduced quite a bit, but the moment the tower gets overpressure, it would directly recirculate again around the fan frame.

That's looking at it a bit superficially and in photos. And it's not that it's bad or anything, but there are important details that when you push things to the limit, they become important, and very important.

Look, I would actually start by having the radiator drawing from the outside, since you have such a hot micro and the tower has enough ventilation to not be affected at all by the radiator blowing inward. Besides, the radiator doesn't blow out very hot air unless you have it at minimums and the micro at full blast all the time, so you wouldn't harm the graphics card or anything.
Then, since the graphics card would evacuate directly to the outside, it would be an independent issue, even more so because of the large space available.

Hello, I know that motherboard very well and I have fought a lot with it. Have you thought about touching the heatsink of the VRMs? you could possibly burn your hand. you have to put a small fan forcing air towards them. and also change the thermal paste on the chipset. these components get too hot making the processor consume more voltage and overheating it. in addition to that, depending on the BIOS you have, you have an option to limit the power according to the processor's TDP. something that the Chinese have implemented recently. remember that the motherboard has recycled elements from servers. chipset, VRMs etc etc and are components designed to work with forced ventilation.
