MY Rx 570 normally idle temp is around 33°c when i first built my pc which is a month ago. However, my cards idle temp is up to 40°c. What should I do?

edit: my card is MSI gaming x rx 570 4gb

There is nothing to worry about that idle temperature. And there is really nothing to but clean for dust (compressed air) or make a custom fan profile to keep it cooler (this will make for more noice)

First of all I would try to clean the card with compressed air or something. Also take notes that once you have been playing, the idle temperature won't get back to normal until some time has passed. Also make sure that once the card is back to idle after gaming or something, doesn't stop spinning the fans or something. Some modern video cards do that to be more silent, I personally have my GTX 760 OC with the fans set to a low speed while idle, but not stopped, so it cools up a bit while browsing the web without sounding like a jet taking off.
