Hello

What kind of load are we talking about here ?

[Michael_818]

not really load, it runs games fine, its just the temps that im uncomfortable with, looking for a bigger one not too expensive that can handle the temps a little better

Do you have good air flow ?

What are the temps while gaming on the GPU?

That version of GPU was released just shy of ten years ago so is doing well to still be with us.

What is the brand and model name or number of the PSU, if as old as the GPU it should have been replaced as soon as any warranty had expired.

The ASUS MB is the smaller micro ATX size board and is therefore very basic and lacks multi cooling fan support, only one CPU and one chassis fan header, chances are that you may well have a smaller desktop type case which is something else that causes GPUs to heat up.

usually range from 69 to 72 while gaming

ive got one fan pulling in and 2 pulling out

That is a perfect/normal temp range under load. Absolutely nothing to be concerned about.
