Hi Tech experts.

I recently bought a Sapphire Dual-X Amd Radeon R9 270X and noticed that my temps were too high (hitting a max of 77'C under load) so i decided to setup a custom fan profile using MSI Afterburner. My fan profile is like this that the fan speed is 3% higher than the temperature. For example when my temperature hits 69'C the fan speed ramps upto 72% and when it is 72'C the fan speeds upto 74%. The sound does not bother me at all. Now the temps never go above 72'C which i am happy with. My question is that can this fan profile harm my GPU in any way? other than the sound is there any other cons to this? Am I okay with these fan speeds or should i lower them? note that sound is not a matter here. Can this fan profile kill my card or something? Any help and advice is appreciated.

My Full Specs:-

CPU: AMD FX-4100 non overclocked @3.6Ghz.
GPU: Sapphire Dual-X AMD Radeon R9 270X
Case: Cooler Master K380 Mid Tower.
PSU: Thermaltake Smart SE 530W Moduler Power Supply.
Mobo: Gigabyte Ultra Durable 4 GA 78LMT-USB3
Cooling: Stock
RAM: 8gb (1x8gb)

Plz let me know if u need any more information, Thanks in advance i standby for your answer/solution.

Not taking the sound into regard what do you think my fan profile should be at? and what do you think my cards max temps should be under? should i try to keep my card under 70'C or something? So i get that no matter how much i increase the fan speed it will not damage the card and/or the fan itself?

90'C? My Card never goes over 78'C after even 6+ hrs of gaming.
When gaming my card gets load temps of 70'C-75'C are these temps okay and safe do you think? note i play for abt 6hrs
