If it's idling above 60C, and going over 80C easily while under load, then that's the problem.

If that's the case you could try taking off the heatsink and applying some thermal gel. Make sure you don't damage the card while doing this though, as the warranty won't cover physical damage.

To give an example of how it should be, mine idles at 46C (except I haven't checked the temperature while it's under load yet).
