I have built a new PC with

Ryzen 5 3500

Gigabyte B450M H

Nvidia GTX 1650 Super

8 GB DDR4 2666MHz RAM

450W PSU

I noticed that when I run Far Cry 3, my PC gets very hot so I went to task manager to see what was my GPU  temp. It was 81 C. I then ran witcher 3 and Watch Dogs and notices the same thing. Temp is very high when playing games

I play on ultra settings and PC is only 3 - 4 days old.

Also, I am using stock fan that came with AMD and one fan that was in my cabinet.

Any suggestions on how to bring my temp down?

Thanks in advance

81c is fine, for turing it starts to clock down when if it gets to 85/90c plus, they're perfectly normal.

So to get your tems down the only realistic option without spending money is ramping the fans up but the noise can be annoying from that. However, 81°C GPU temps aren't bad for performance and mostly GPUs run in the 70-85 degree range just fine and temperature doesn't really effect the GPU until around 95 degrees. That's where the ceramic capacitors start to go bad and generally ceramic capacitors like do go out with a bang. Luckily your PC should shut off before you get anywhere dangerous with the temps

Thank you everyone for replying. I forgot about this post until now.  The problem was with FC3 only all other games keep my gpu at 65 - 70 only. It could also be the fact the my PC was close to wall and there was no way for heat to escape. I stopped playing FC3 and the problem went away :)
