Okay so I have a GTX 1060 windforce edition and I am running 1 1440p monitor and 2 1080p monitors and my temperature with 0% load is 55-60 degrees Celsius. While under load it is around 70-80 degrees Celsius (Also I am using CAM software to see my temps). Is the reason the temps are high is because I am running 3 monitors? If so would it help if I maybe purchased a cheaper graphics to go along with my 1060 to run my 2 1080p monitors since I only use them for productivity and my 1440p is only for gaming. If so I would it be okay with only a 650W Gold power supply? And would another graphics card interfere with the 1060 since I am not running it in SLI. Sorry this is a lot. Thanks!

What is your current power supply sir? IT IS FOR SURE not a problem with what psu you have. Gigabyte cards the non aorus version are quite hot compared to other versions. It's not a problem that you are running 80 degrees. You just shouldn't have bought this card. I used a g1 gaming. It's not bad , but it gets up to 80 degrees and it's pretty loud.

Don't worry this temperature will not damage your gpu. Everything is fine. The only thing is about you chosing this card. Other than that , nothing to worry about even though the temps are pretty high. I recommend making a custon fan curves to let it get colder. Steps. :

1.Download msi afterburner. : http://download.msi.com/uti_exe/vga/MSIAfterburnerSetup.zip

2.Go to settings.

3.Click...
