My temperatures have mostly stayed around 80-84C under load, which from what I heard so far, is not alarming. I set up a fan curve on MSI Afterburner, and made it the fans run at 100% at 80C. However the temperatures don't really seem to be dropping, at least according to Overwatch's GPU Temperature Monitor. It stays at a constant 81C, usually jumping to 82 then going back down. Is this really safe? I had the card for 2 years.

How are your case fans, are they running smoothly?

Is the exhaust in the back noticeably warm after playing for a bit?

Is there any kind of overclock on the card?

For an AMD card that would be fine but it does seem a little hot to me considering its nVidia's, but you really shouldn't be that concerned, they are rated to run upwards of 85-90C and will be fine if they stay there.

I don't know. I haven't checked the exhaust.

No, there shouldn't be any overlock on the card.

I heard they are able to run around those temperatures, but when it comes to temperatures, I get very concerned.
