[SOLVED] RX 580 overheating drastically in Apex Legends ?

[KnifeWounds]

I have an rx 580 4gb, and a ryzen 5 1400. In Apex Legends my gpu temp skyrockets to 80-90 degrees but my cpu stays around 40-50 degrees. Both of them are at 95-100% usage constantly but my gpu consistently is much higher. The issue is that whenever i try to load into a game on Apex my gpu stops displaying. My fans are consistently sitting at max speed and at this point im lost and the only thing i can think to do is to replace the thermal paste and add more fans to my case.

Not sure if the issue has been fixed over time, as I don't play that game. If it doesnt, then you might have to look at better case/cooling/ambient.
