Hi,

just wanna ask is it normal that the GPU hits 80 degree celsius during gaming?

idle temperature is around 41-45 degree celcius
while im playing shadow of the tomb raider, temperature goes up to 80 degree celcius within 10 minutes of gameplay, and the fan hits hard and loud too to maintain the temperature

should i improve the air flow in the case?

currently i have 2 fans air in at the front, 1 fan air out at the rear
should i add another 1 at the front for air intake, and 1 at the top of case for air exhaust?
