GPU Spacing and Undervolting: What Actually Matters for Multi-Card Stability
Tight GPU spacing in multi-card setups doesn't guarantee failure—but undervolting alone won't solve thermal or power delivery problems if airflow is already compromised.

A systems engineer running four RTX 5060 Ti 16GB cards on a single motherboard asked whether aggressive spacing between cards poses a long-term reliability risk, especially if undervolting reduces power draw. The question cuts to a common misconception in GPU cluster design: that lower power consump...
