recently i got a new desk, set up dual monitors this time,

this is exactly how my new desk looks like:

After i set up everything, turned on dual monitors, everything worked fine, did some slight gaming, now i noticed my gpu temps are a bit higher than before, you see in that desk, theres a slot where you put the tower, i put my tower inside that and as expected, theres less ventilation, air flow,

usually my gpu temps on idle never go above 50 degrees

now it stays somewhere 50-53 degrees, on gaming, it never goes above 60.

Should i be worried about my gpu heating?

I just opened another game and my 3 temps are

60 degrees 52 degrees 72 degrees, idk which one is the one i should be paying attention,
anyway, im running an MSI R9 270, and i was wondering if i could use MSI Afterburner to increase fan speed

What are the side effects of running an increased fan speed?
Never overclocked CPU or GPU.
How do i increase fan speed? Sorry im new to this.
