Hey guys, I would really appreciate some assistance here...
So right now I am having my GPU 6900XT and ever since I got it, my temps are reaching 90-105 degrees Celsius during intense gaming (no overclock). Reading online that this is very dangerous.
I have a CPU of 5600X having perfect temperatures of 40-50 degrees. I changed my case incase issue was with airlfow, got the Meshify Compact 2 Airflow, and I have 5 fans installed inside, and its still the same exact temperature as my previous case... My GPU fans is reaching the max (around 3000 RPM) I made the curve to reach 100% fan speed once GPU is at 70 degrees, and its still not helping with the temperature... What else can I do... I took it to local PC shop (they are the ones that put all the parts for me since I am noob in PC builds) and they said there is nothing wrong with my GPU and that these temperatures are perfectly fine for AMD. I also tried to clean installed AMD and its still not fixing my issue.
I also am seeing other 6900xt GPU running Big games on youtube and they are only having 70-80 degrees which is my ideal range .... I am so lost, what can I do...

AMD GPUs certainly reach higher temperatures than their Nvidia counterparts. What kind of AIB Models are you seeing on youtube that run at 79-80°C? If they're liquid cooled / EVGA models for example, you'll have to find your exact model for best comparison.

What are you GPU's idle temps? Those are usually a good indicator if the GPU is having issues or not. Another thing to check if you're having temperature issues under load: Run some benchmarks and compare the scores to see if your GPU is underperforming and might be thermal throttling because of high temperatures.
