I just bought a MSI Nvidia Geforce GTX 970 4GB ( The 2X Armor Edition)
After playing Assassin's Creed Unity on ultra Graphics (everything maxed out) ,,,, after playing it for 15 minutes i get 76 degree temperature !
I dont know why ?
Does this MSI 2X Armor Edition does not have a twin frozr V cooling system ??
My case has 2 x 80mm cooling fans on side and 1 x 80mm fan on the rear , but still i get 70-76 degree temperature when running Assassin's Creed Unity ???
Help !!!!
Does it has the Twin Frozr V colling system ??

You probably you teased the airflow and there was no airflow at all.
The side fans have to push air inside the case and the rear out. Heat goes up and need to be exhausted because if don't it will gather the heat at top of the case and warm it. So the rear were are at the top have to push out air and the side fans were are almost at the bottom have to push in air for the GPU to suck the fresh cool air.
Pushing air inside the GPU is more effective than pushing the air out. Only water coolers have to push air out by pushing the air inside the hot radiator.

Do you have your case fans properly set up in a push-pull configuartion? You need more air drawn in than being blown out to build up positive air pressure in the case, otherwise the extracting fan is working against air pressue and will not be able to draw the hot air out as intended
 


If that's true then there is your issue. As snowctrl said, you need to have more air going into the case than coming out, so you if you have two fans at the front and one at the back of your case for example, you want the front ones pulling air in and the back one pushing air out. You need more cool air coming into the case as this helps exhaust fans shift the hot air out.

No that won't work - you need some fans drawing air INTO the case (usually the front fans) - in fact you need more air being drawn in than expelled, otherwise your case cooling will not work.

Set up your case fans to have two fans draw air in the front, and one expel it from the back, for example

Front in Back out!... Get a Water Cooler man. Front in back out even if you are a jet... 75c is for twin frozen normal and will not brake your card don't worry about that. Rise a little bit the GPU fans about 10%. And use static fans in your case which working high RPM.

First of all 75 ish degrees isn't going to hurt the card but for a Maxwell yes that is rather warm.

Second u need intake fans bro. Take the 2 off the side and either flip them so they are drawing in air rather than pushing out or move them somewhere else in the case but still make sure u flip them so they add air to the system.
