I bought a new CPU cooler and my temps are good but my GPU is now getting way too hot. i think its because i installed my evo 212 horizontal maybe? the fan is facing the GPU. but it was the only way it would fit unless it faces upwards in the case. other then that idk why its getting so hot. i even have a new better case on the way. the temp for GPU gets to about 70 my CPU stays at 40

GPU RX 580
CPU ryzen 2600
 
Solution
Which model of 580 is it specifically? If it's blower style that's reasonable, and even then 70 degrees isn't even close to throttling, so there's no real problem.
