Is 69% fan speed good enough to handle 75 degrees when gaming?

Is 69% fan speed good enough when gaming with  75 degrees on intense gpu workload? My concern is that maybe the gpu will get hot to not get handled with 69% fan speed.

I set it to this because above 69 or 70 it would produce a grinding noise.

I customized a fan curve to my liking and this is how it looks does it perform well??u=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fis-there-any-way-to-set-a-limit-for-fan-speed-rpm-v0-epcyw3kmo8qc1.png%3Fwidth%3D381%26format%3Dpng%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D9a61b560737bd3f68cbe2271552793bacf02d10e

Hard to say with no reference to anything. You can test this yourself you know?

A fan curve is just numbers on paper, it means nothing without the hardware its controlling and environment its in. We can't say much of anything without testing it on your hardware, or better yet, you can. Then make adjustments.

How can we know if it performs well?  You haven't given any test data, or results to analyze.  Nor any components to look at, what GPU?  What case?  What other airflow?  What anything?

 

I'ts like asking" am i tall enough?" 

 

Get new fans or RMA the product.  Grinding noises are a no no.

You have to configure the fan curve to your individual preference. As long as your components aren't hitting their maximum operating temperature, you're free to configure them to be louder and keep stuff cooler, or use the extra temperature headroom to slow the fans down to be quieter. It's impossible to say if your fans are configured right or wrong.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

My gpu is a 1660 ti galax 

for now i set it to this because i cant get ahold of any gpu fans and my warranty is expired.

That's.... concerning. Have you looked at replacing the fans? 
And yeah, if 70 is as high as you can go before you get annoyed, ABSOLUTELY max it at 69 ferda meme

So i did some testing and 69% fan speed cant handle 76 degrees temp. It's max temp on this fan speed is 78-79 degrees. Is 78-80 degrees fine for gaming?

You should be fine if that is the max it hits .

Just finished a 1 hr session on a gpu intensive game in maxes out on 78-79 degrees and the hot spot is 92. And on 69% fan speed is crazy for me. 

Because back then when i had a 1 fan zotac 1050 ti i had like 85 degrees when playing. and without the custom fan curve it would max out on 75 degrees and on 73% fan speed with the grinding noise present which is alarming for me. It's annoying tbh.

I think you should replace the fans, but to answer the question of if 79C is to hot, not if that is the max.

NO! Not good enough. Your goal is to get 69c@69% fan speed.  /s

92c hotspot is a little bit high. Maybe a repaste can lower it. 

IINM, the card will thermal throttle at 83c or 95c hotspot so you're 'fine'

So based on my discoveries, the fans starts to make a noise around 2280-2300 rpm. or at 70% fan speed. It would make noises back then from 60 fan speed. I dont know how it fixed itself.

Im looking onto replacing the fans in the near future but gaming in general seems smooth i haven't experienced crashes since then. 

 

Back then the noises from the gpu was even louder than now currently, the noise seemt to have been lower than previously. 
It was so annoying to the point where i wasn't about to game on it anymore. But now its tolerable but just incase i put the fan speed to 69% so it wont cause some issues near the future.
