Good day, Im worrying about my GPU's temps I thought 55 degrees (IDLE) and 80-90 degrees (LOAD) is fine but when my friend build his pc and he has the same gpu and almost the same specs his temps idle is below 38 and 75 underload. i set my gpu fans speed to 33% it goes down to 44 degrees but some people said that its not a good idea to set itt manully. what might be the problem? Thanks in advance.

Specs:
R5 1600 6-core
Gigabyte AB350-Gaming 3
Asus Dual Geforce GTX 1060 3gb
8GB ram
EVGA 500 B1 80+ PSU (500w)

There is no issue at customsing your fan curve if it in general helps you too run your gpu more cooler and as per customising goes my preffered is MSI afterburner this has a lot of options .
yea as far as fan speed goes...

Download GPUz and check clocks and GPU usage (sensors tab) of your GPU while idle, you could also use Hwmonitor for the same purpose, screenshots would be great: some process could be using it (browser with video) accounting for it's higher temps, or a poorly ventilated case.
It's perfectly fine to bump up GPU fan to keep it cooler and at reasonable temp while idle, that's the purpose of the GPU fan, 44 is a sweet spot depending on room temperature with a fan speed at 33% which is not that high of RPM, you could adjust the Fan RPM curve all together using MSI afterburner to adapt to card temperature increasing and decreasing fan speed automatically to maintain card within more reasonable temps.

yea as far as fan speed goes my idle fan speeds are 47 percent which keeps my card at like 33 degrees or 36 which is good but under load when its spike upt o 60 degrees i have configured my fans to run at 70 percent speed to ensure it runs cooler but also made sure not have my fan spin at like 80 percent or something cause too much rpm is also not that good for the fans but uptill 75 percent is your sweet spot if you don't mind the sound it makes .
