I would try to use and HDMI to DVI cable(if you do not have a DVI port on the computer). A single link can run a 1920 x 1200 screen.
VGA with a good cable will still be a bit less sharp on text, but almost everything else should look fine.
Also you may wish to check the cleartype settings as they blend the fonts to make them look nicer and that may not be something you are used to or are used to and is off.

Best solution
Ok, well that is an issue for sure. It almost sounds like the HDMI -> VGA adapter is messing up your native resolution.
Your screen as stated above seems to be a 1920 x 1200. not MANY HDMI adapters(if they are using a converter chip) top out at 1920 x 1080. This can cause a stretch that will make things look fuzzy.
The passive DVI-I(that means it has those 4 extra pins around the flat part[sometimes it is cross shaped] on the video card's DVI port) -> VGA will NOT cause this kind of issue. I actually have a 1920 x 1200 screen over VGA and it look almost as good as it does over DVI. The text is just slightly less sharp(and I mean very slight, most users would not even notice slight..).

hey are the dvi-i pins suppose to have a cross or just one line in between the top 2 pins and bottom 2 pins? for example this one http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=9...
oh ps i have a vga cable so yeah

The cross is normally on the video card it self(but it may be a slot a well. you HAVE to have the 4 pins around it, as long as you have those, you are good to go.). The adapter has a flat plate.
Here is an example of those adapters in use.

Most newer cards will have 1 port that can do VGA and if they have more DVI ports, they will NOT do VGA.
The top port will NOT work with a VGA adapter while the bottom one WILL

Can you give me an exact link to your 7950 so I can make SURE it has the DVI-I port.
Is it this? Lists DVI-I as well as the fact that it does do analog upto 2048 x 1536(standard max for analog)

Too much voltage can be bad for the card. On top of the fact that it can damage it, it also is harder on the power delivery system.
60c is great temp for a card to be honest. My last 3 cards(I an not counting my GTX 650 ti from MSI. it is lower powered so run 50-60 with just the slightest fan speed increase[it is still almost silent]) got into the low 80's at full load.

Too much voltage is still bad for the cpu.
Personally I take a cpu to the point that it needs a substantial jump in voltage(it is different for all chips) and call that the MAX point. Past this is takes too much voltage and generates too much heat for small gains if performance.
So yes, Your video card should be fine with such an adapter. If you have picked up video cards in the past, check the box for them, you may already have one or 2. I have a small pile of the things(they ALL work the same even with some having less pins.).
