What's a good fan curve to set for the 1080 FTW ACX 3.0? 

I like to keep my card cooler, I don't mind the sound of the fans however I know long term use a high speeds will wear out the bearings faster, so I suppose I'm looking for more of a balance.
I don't overclock it, but Id like to keep it 65C or below at 100% load.

Thanks! 

Also I use MSI Afterburner

    I have my curve hitting 75% fan at 59C and at 100% load, 61C is the highest temp I see.  Of course, ambient temp, airflow etc, all play a part.  But that's what works for me.

    On my 1080 FTW I run my fans at 30% (always on) until 60c and then curve the fans up 10% for every 10 degrees. I dont put my fans past 60% ever and that is at 80C.
