I want it to be able to run witcher 3 maxed out and not have it reach 90 degrees Celsius

Maxing out TW3 is a tall order for 90% of video cards. I would expect it to be hot if you're trying to get it to do that. That's a blower cooler on it?

MSI gaming 290x? Hmm, well try upping the fan speed a bit I guess. But TW3 is a very demanding game in general. 1080p or 1440p?
