Hello again, friends! I currently have an RX 7600 ASROCK CHALLENGER OC and I'm worried about its current temperature. I installed a game (Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, if it's important to know) and temperatures began to vary between 66°C - 71°C, getting closer to 70°C overall. I wanted to know what the normal and safe temperature range is for this graphics card and whether I'm worrying rightly or wrongly. Can you help me again?

I'll second that. Perfectly normal. If you start edging up into the 90C range, you have a problem. Even 80C would be ok. Not optimal, but ok.

If we are talking about the GPU hotspot temp then as said it’s perfectly normal for modern GPUs. These chips have max operating temp at 110C.
Up to 80-90C is considered fine.
As many would agree I personally like it under 80C.

Don't look at the GPU temperature. Look at the "GPU hotspot temperature". By official spec, it should be below 110 °C, but ideally, it shouldn't reach 100.
