About a month ago I upgraded my pc with a GTX970.
a few times since then I felt alot of heat coming out of my PC and I just now realized that Asus's "GPU tweak" program was registering 50c from the GPU when running games!..

I have 2 pretty strong fans and the one on the GTX970 but something is heating and I can figure out what...



my specs:
GeForce GTX 970
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
8.00 GB RAM
Windows 10

Any suggestions?:??:

You get 50c under load? That's nothing. I get 85c, and don't worry about it. GPUs are designed to get hot. Oh, and the hot air coming from the back of the case is good. It means that your fans are doing a fine job of cooling the inside of the case by getting the hot air out.
