I have only had this card for less than a month and it's concerning me how quickly it heats up to 80 ºc.
When I first got set up with my new card I tested to see how well it handles games like Red Dead Redemption I noticed it quickly got hot within 5mins playing nothing too demanding apart from graphics being Maxed I changed the settings to Medium and stayed around 60 ºc but then I test it out on other games from Wow, Runescape just to see if a less demanding game will run well yet still reaches around 80 ºc.
I did some tests from having fans run in turbo mode while playing, having a side panel off and even sticking my main Desk Fan aiming at the card still nothing really stops it from hitting 75 ºc+ within minutes.
