Don't forget that BOINC, with a GPU or not, is a very good stress test for your own machines. Today being an unusually warm day in Chicagoland, I just checked the CPU temperature on my main cruncher. Holy hell, it was running at 95°C with an ambient room temperature of about 84°F/29°C. Blowing out the dust brought that down to a much more reasonable 75°C, much more reasonable for a mildly overclocked Ryzen 7 1700 running full-bore with a stock cooler in a hot room. It's still too early for me to be turning on the air conditioning.

The GPU didn't seem to get any cooler, but its fans tend to loaf even with a GPU unit crunching. In my opinion, EVGA did a beautiful job with this card. It's running at about 62-67°C with the fan at 16% according to nvidia-smi.
