As the title states I was wondering if my temps are too high? Below I have listed some infomation you may need.

I currently own a Zotac 2070 Super Amp (Two fans) with a +100 Core Clock and a +1200 Mem Clock.

My temps are around 43-46c with Discord open and are at a max of 80c while playing DBD on medium and streaming.

The temperature outside is always around 32c and it's much stuffier in my room, as well as my PC is on the floor.

80°C is fine if that is your maximum GPU temperature under a full load.

I'd run Furmark or another full stress torture test that provides a 100% GPU load and verify that you don't exceed 80°C at any time for at least a ten minute run. If you do, try adjusting your fan profile or you might need to take a look at case cooling. There may be insufficient ambient airflow into the case or a lack of sufficient exhaust out of the case.

Removing the side panel and running it like that temporarily is a good way to determine if case airflow is the problem or not. If nothing changes, then the problem is not due to case airflow and might be simply a too high overclock, too high ambient temperature or some physical problem with the graphics card...
