First I must disclose that I am, by no means, a tech savvy guy. I even got my friend to build my PC for me because I have no idea what any of it means.

I've had the AMD Radeon RX480 for about 5 months now, and I was wondering if 82C is too hot or if that's okay? The game I play most of the time is Overwatch, and on max settings the temp is predominantly at 82C, very ocassionally slipping to 83C.

If that's too hot, are there any easy fixes for this? I'm reluctant to open the case and fiddle about inside as I don't know the first thing about PC builds (but I will if I have to). Would stuff like having it raised off the ground or having an external fan pointing into it help at all?

Thanks in advance, and sorry if I have left any important info out, I don't really know what you need
