Description pretty much has it, under load with both OCCT/Furmark running, as I wanted to see how hot it gets while the GPU is also under load. The max GPU temp is 59, with a max CPU temp of 73 after about 2 hours, but generally floated between 67 and 71 through most of the test.

That's on air not water by the way. Thoughts?

Also I use MSI Afterburner and a custom fan profile for the GPU, basically I have it set for the fans to go 100% at 59 degrees, hence that's where the temp stops increasing.

I'm considering getting a 140mm fan for the exhaust to prevent heat from building up in the case, unfortunately on my case I'm stuck with 120's for the front intakes and I really don't want to use the side or top fan mountings that are available as that would open up the case and let more noise out.

I'm going to double check the fans are running at my intended speeds, particularly the CPU cooler one because a Noctua NH-U14S isn't a lightweight when it comes to cooling.
