I have a Gigabyte Windforce Gtx 1070 Oc and was unsure about what the fan speeds and temperature should stay under during use? Thank you

The GTX 1070 targets a temperature just under 85C. So if you keep it under 80C then you'll be fine.

Please note that high fan speed is not a problem at all. Running a fan at 100% for a long period of time should not cause any damage.

Cue that typical internet argument "What if the fan motor overheats?" That won't happen because of the airflow through the fan. The air brushes against the fan motor at the same speed that it hits the heatsink fin array.

I haven't seen reviews for that version of the 1070, but many 1070's benefit greatly from a change to a more aggressive fan curve. MSI Afterburner is a good program to do this.
