Hello experts, i have issue regarding my Nvidia graphic card overheat issue

My gpu : EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 GAMING (http://)

my casing : Sharkoon vg5-w (http://)
-2 intake fans + 1 outflow fans

This is my new pc built 1 week ago.
And i got reference about evga sc gtx1060 about 60c in load temp(even though i know it's SC but it shouldn't be that big temperature difference though)
source : http://


i ran it with furmark for 4~5 minute and i got 84c in my room with air conditioner on(should be less than 30c room temperature)
this is the result

can anyone tell me is that i have problem with my setting/usage/gpu malfunction or simply it's normal and no need to worry?

Thanks for concern

Edit : i don't know why the image won't show this is the link

It will, but not as badly as you might think. It may take a month or so off of the many years the card should last. Hardly noticible, in my eyes.

My reference Nvidia GTX 980 runs at these same temps (usually sits around 80-81, as games don't push it as hard as furmark does) for many, many hours at a time. At least it did, until this weekend when I converted it to liquid cooling.

If you are concerned about it, an NZXT Kraken G10 bracket is about 30 dollars, and will allow you to mount a range of liquid coolers onto the card for better temps.
Furmark is going to push a GPU to it's absolute limit anytime it can.

Reference Nvidia cards can and will operate around 84c, at 80c they will slow the clock speed some to compensate for the temperature. They are safe to run up to 92-94c, and will most likely never get that high.

Using something like MSI Afterburner or OpenHardwareMonitor (OHM is my personal preference) you can manually set the fan speed to higher than normal to bring temps down some. Reference cards don't run the fan(s) at very high speed unless it's done manually.

On a reference design card, what you are seeing is normal, for the most part. You will need to crank up the fan speed or use an aftermarket cooler if you want it to be cooler than that.
 
Already using precision xoc to set the fan but doesnt seem much of the improvement,i usually game for several hour , will it affect my GPU life span?

thanks for info , one more question, my card clock speed ( boosted) suppose to be 1.7k but my precision ocx showing that it ran to 1.8k, is that precision oc automatically overclocked for me?

How fast would I want my fan? (I have this same problem) as the more I push my fan, the higher my Graphics card seems to think an OK temp, and still gets scared and stops trying at 83 C. How can I fix this problem if I cant change the fan speed? (So far Ive gone all the way to 100%, once, it still overheated then though.)
