Tell me about the server in your attic. I’m in Florida and so putting tech in my attic seems like a bad idea. Is your attic/loft air conditioned? Do you live in a cold climate?
My RTX 3090 is literally unusable upstairs. I have it in a closet downstairs and that closet gets quite toasty, but I would imagine the Florida attic will take it to junction temp at idle.
I’ve also thought about putting some kind of ventilation system in an upstairs closet that pushes warm air into the attic but that too seems like it could be a bad idea.
I live in London so heat is not really that much of a concern. It can get hot in the summer (30+c is not uncommon) but so far it has not caused any problems, but then I only have medium-range CPU and GPU (i5 something and 1060 or 1070 GPU IIRC - can't remember as I use it so infrequently, most of my time is with a X1 carbon laptop and streaming from GFN so barely use the desktop in the loft and it is sitting idling almost all the time)
