hey everyone, i got this gtx 980 msi gaming 4gb edition i overclocked it a little , anyway this is my first top-end gpu from the gtx 960 , i play aaa 2016 games a lot so it gets to 77c i think it's okay but what if it one day reached like 80c to 85c should i be worried ?

this gpu can go up to 90°c so possibly not

you need to play with msi afterburner to find a perfect spot with the fan curve and the load of games, the case will need at least two fans in the front and one in the back, iirc one on the top should help too

in general don't be worried if it reaches 85°c because it is expected to do that, ideally the new case will help but don't expect miracles from this card

yep that's my lovely gpu over there, the case is just a stock case of dell that came with my i7 3770, and the airflow sucks anyway, but i am totally planing to change it in like 3 days , because of the cable management anyway, it sucks too with my huge corsair tx 650, so if i change to good gaming corsair carbide series or something, will my temps go down ?
