[Hot] GPU Temperature ~ Games

[xovenus]

My Issue: I play a few video games, CSGO, Fortnite, that's about it. When I have the FPS up to 120 my GPU temperature shoots up by 10-15 degrees. When playing CSGO, if I don't set my fps limit my temperature goes up to around 80-90, and that's on Ultra settings. When playing Fortnite, I attempt to put the settings to "Epic" and I limit the FPS to 60, but my GPU Temperature still shoots up very high 75-85 (maybe hotter, haven't tested it). I usually have to turn up my fan speed via MSI Afterburner, but it does not help. When playing on medium on Fortnite, I run my fanspeed at 53, to keep it around 63 degrees.

Notes: My fans are completely fine, the case came with two pre-installed fans. I've only had the PC for a couple months, maybe 8, not sure

 

What do I think may be causing the issue?: My GPU is directly above the PSU, the PSU fan blows on the GPU, maybe this is why, other than that, I don't know.
