I recently upgraded my power supply to a CORSAIR RMX Series RM850x and installed a new NVIDIA TITAN X (Pascal) hybrid graphics card. However, I'm experiencing overheating issues when I try to play demanding games. The temperatures spike to around 80 to 90 degrees Celsius during gameplay, while less demanding games only push it to about 50 to 70 degrees. I also added 32GB of RAM and increased my storage to 2.5TB. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Those temps are definitely on the higher side! Normal gaming temps for a Titan X should ideally be in the lower 80s or less. You might want to look into reapplying thermal paste or checking your GPU's cooling solution. If it's a hybrid model, ensure water and fans are functioning as they should. Just keep an eye on those temps, as prolonged high heat can shorten the lifespan of your GPU!
It sounds like your GPU could be struggling with cooling under load. Have you checked if the fans on the graphics card are working properly? Sometimes, dust buildup can block airflow. Also, make sure your case has sufficient airflow and consider adding more fans if necessary.
