Had a bit of a scare earlier today when GPU fans started revving and framerates were noticeably below normal. Turns out my case intake filters were stuffed with dust. CPU fins were starting get bad but the 1070 looked nearly brand-new clean ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Might need to redo the thermal compound but the temperature is only a few degrees off now and I don't want to risk accidently bricking my GPU since I do not have a backup and would be a hell of a job to find a replacement.
