Hey. 

 

Month ago i bought brand new 1070 Ti Armor despite knowing they are not greatest coolers in the world, even tho card was working fine with games which can run comfortably. In much more demanding games reaches 80c and more quite easily and doesnt drop to many degrees even on 100% fan speed and im not comfortable with that, so i am thinking about aftemarket heatsinks and even AIOs but im not sure which ones fit MSI PCB, i believe its the same as Gaming X Cards. 

 

Case has 3 intake fans(2x120 on the radiator in front, push config, and 1 intake on the back, 3 exhaust fans on the top since heat, rises etc, and case is much cooler inside with that setup, and all of them being Corsair HD120s,so i dont think case airflow is the issue here, case being Antec P6. 

 

I would appreciate any recommendations, thanks!

The armor is a crap cooler, if you cant return it, try to undervolt it a bit dont know if you can, change the termal past. If non if this works get a Artic accelero 4, I have 55c with my rx 480 on 1.2v and 1450 clock.

I wont return it, card performs great, beyond my expectations, but im not ok with those temps. Yeah, forgot to mention, i did changr the thermal paste, applied some MX-4. I will look into thosr coolers, thank you!
