Hello everyone. I am fairly new to PC gaming and just built a new desktop. I am wondering about GPU/CPU usage and their long term affects. My short list of specs would include an Asus Maximus viii Formula motherboard, Intel i7-6700k w/ liquid cooling, A Zotac 1070 AMP Extreme with 8GB VRAM, 16GB RAM. I have tested a couple games since the build and for instance, GTA V maxed out is sitting at 99% GPU usage, memory usage for the GPU is in the 25-50%, CPU usage is in the 20-30% range and my temps for both GPU and CPU are the the 50-60 degrees c range. With the GPU usage being so high, is there any long term affects that could harm it? I will also add that in GTA V I have been getting an average of 100 FPS. It would appear that the system is running properly. I have seen mixed answers about this question and any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
