Hey everyone! I'm wondering if it's typical for a 3060 Ti blower version to reach temperatures between 85-90°C while playing games like CS2 or RDR2 at 1440p. Just for context, I'm using an Acer Nitro N50-610. Any insights would be appreciated!

It sounds like your airflow might be a bit restricted since the Nitro N50-610 is a compact case with limited fans. When I pushed my GPU hard without any case, I only got to about 65°C, so that's pretty cool. Maybe try giving it a clean with some canned air or even a leaf blower if you have one?
The airflow isn't great because the case has just one fan. I actually tried playing without the side panel, and the temps stayed the same. I did clean it out, but I didn't manage to clean inside the GPU as it's pretty closed off. I reached out to a service center, and they quoted around €150 for repasting the GPU and CPU. I’m unsure if I should invest in that or just buy a new PC since I play at 1440p.
