Hello,
So I recently bought a used rtx 3070 and noticed a few problems.
Idle temps are at 41C and while gaming it goes up to 87C, it's the same case with my old MSI Armor 1060 6G OC, so i guess it is not enough cooling inside the case?
The second problem is that when i play any game (except cpu heavy games, which do not use the gpu that much) the fan speed stay as set in MSI AB, but after alt+tabbing back into the game from desktop the fan speed goes to 100% completely overriding the speed set in MSI AB.

I also use a dual monitor setup one of them being 60hz and the other 240hz, both being 1080p. Just throwing that out there in case this might help.

Can this be caused by bad ventilation or is there a particular reason behind this?
