While I was playing Assassins Creed Origins in 1440p 144hz the temperature for the gpu ranged from 72-79. When I launch it it starts at around 50 then gradually increases.

Cpu is 52-60, however the gpu is my concern.

Case: CM Storm Stryker
CPU: 8700k (not overclocked)
Fans: All stock except for the h100i v2 setup as an intake on the top
GPU: Asus 1080ti ROG STRIX OC
 
Solution
Yes, you do have intake fans on the front? Your CPU temps will rise, but you'll get better 'flow' remember you are trying to cycle the air through the case quickly, and not just push as much air as possible into the case.


The only thing blowing air onto the GPU is the intake h100i v2 on the top of the case.
 


So I should orient the h100iv2 to an exhause?
