So my gtx1060 is running at 83 Celsius (in my opinion that is overheating) does any one know any ways to fix that

That is a little high for a 1060. But depending on the model some don't have great cooling. What brand is it and do you have an overclock set for it?

NVIIDA safe mode is technically 93c but if you don't adjust the settings your card will start to throttle at 83c. Well before any damage can happen.

Hi,
You could do a few things. Graphics cards are actually meant to safely operate in temprarures as high as 90c, so I wouldn't work about it occasionally peaking at 83c. Try a less aggressive overclock.

You must have little to no airflow in your case than. or the fan isn't spinning.
