hey guys, currently using the gtx 1070 ASUS DUAL OC and seeing some weird temps while playing games, it can go up to 83 celsius and then go down to around 74-76ish, I have the fractal design r5 and I've heard it has bad airflow, I've also heard that anything under 90 for the card is ok but I just wanna see some lower temps, have the z170-a-pro mobo with 2 fans plus the CPU-fan, where should I put fans for it to become as good as possible if I were to put in some extra fans?
Where should I put casefans for the maximum airflow?

Two front and a rear fan is probably what you got, and that is the best setup. You should clean the case however and you could invest in some noctua case fans to fill in the side and top fan position. And how hot is it in your room anyways?

in at the front, out at the back/top. 83 is not an issue in the slightest, you are probably having the fan speed profile for the card managing your card to 83, if you increase the fan speed you'll get lower temps, but at the cost of noise.

Aftermarket fans are generally pretty similar, however if you want really efficient cooling and don't might slightly higher noise levels, the noctua industrial are one of the best out there.

that'll be just the GPU fan, which is the only one that will have a fast impact, however 83 is really not a concern, the bios will attempt to manage to something around mid 80's. It's when it hit's mid 80's and the fan is at 100% on auto that you have a problem. I Run my fan speed at about 80% at load, 50% wouldn't do much.
