Hi, so i noticed when I'm playing The Witcher 3 my temp hits about 78 to even 80 °C at some place.
I use 2 CM Sickleflow for intake and 1 for exhaust
My question is it safe to play at these temperatures will it damage my GPU on long run?
What is the solution?

My GPU is Palit/DA GTX 970 Jetstream

I would reccomend monitoring your temperatures in real time and setting a fan curve that suits your own needs. Everyone has different personal thresholds. Some people might say your computer is too loud, but you think it is fine, for example.
 


That's not true. SR-71 Blackbird has said the throttle point, it's well in the 90s. Your observation is simply related to your GPUs getting hotter under heavier load, heavy load which means they probably can't maintain stable FPS.
