65 degrees C is totally normal for a videocard, up to 85 C even.

But keep in mind your temperatures are also decided by your ambient temperature; how hot or cold it is in the room the PC is in.

Yes i got that. But is it normal like that card gets hot to touch? Even though i just started the game maxed out?

Well yeah, 65 degrees C is hot to the touch and GPU's heat up quite quickly after launching a game; I can say from experience.

 

If you are really worried about some part being too  hot (e.g. if you're thinking some part is hotter than the 65 degrees) your only real options to test this are:

- getting a thermal camera (one that sees how hot something is)

- Thermal sensor that you can point to a hotspot

- Thermal probes

- Looking at reviews that go in depth on temps (mainly VRM temps, because if it isn't the GPU core itself getting hot; it might be that.

Honesty im stupid. I noticed my fans in prexcision they are not set to auto. And the fans wasn't kicking in at certain temp. And i have my 5 case fans not working because my commander pro decided to die on me. After running my fans. I can fairly touch it even though its hot but not that hot

It's normal that a graphics card will reach about 85C after being under heavy load for an extended period of time, but if it goes to 90C or further you should be worried
