45c Normal IDLE temp?

My GPU is an RTX 2060 and I'm idling at 45c. I recently took my PC apart and cleaned everything.

 

When playing pretty intensive games it gets up to like 70 - 75c is this okay?

 

Also with MSI afterburner my auto fan speed is on 40% I was thinking of adding a custom curve so that it stays around 40 at default and when it reaches 60c it goes to 50 - 60% and 80 or 90c it'll go to maybe 100%?

Yup, that's all good (assuming an ambient temp of 20-25C).

Most GPUs have a zero fan mode when under low load. It's not uncommon to see idle temps of 50-55 C depending on what you're doing. I'll see my GPU sit around those temps when watching Youtube/Twitch since the fan doesn't kick on until 60 C by default.

Be sure to QUOTE or TAG me in your reply so I see it!
