High gtx 1060 6gb temperature

I recently got a gaming pc.
Specs are:
i5 8400
Gigabyte gtx 1060 6gb oc dual fan
Antec NE550W psu
Vengeance 8gb 2400MHz ram

While playing games my gpu usage is always 99% and the temp is 75C. I'm really worried because on YouTube I've seen people get about 50-60C gpu temp with the same specs. Also, i haven't overclocked it.
Thank you and hope to see some answers that put me at peace..... ✌️

You ideally want gpu usage to be as high as possible while gaming, it shows you do not have a bottleneck elsewhere in your system when playing that particular game.

75c is perfectly fine for that GPU. There are many reasons why your GPU would be running hotter than others you see. Ambient temps and case airflow for example. If you want lower temps try setting up a custom fan profile with something like msi afterburner

Can you please elaborate on the custom fan profile thing. I'm very new to this...

Sorry mate. I voted down your answer by mistake and now I'm unable to vote up.
