Turn down the settings, just because your card can run Ultra at 30 fps, doesn't mean you should. I used to have an R7 250 and used Mass Effect 3 Medium to high with 50% fan speed and got 40 degrees celsius.

Do you have Graphics Overdrive enabled in AMD overdrive - Catalyst Control Center? If not enable it and just adjust the Fan speed LEAVE everything else. Put the fan speed upto what ever you prefer 40% odd is usually a nice safe bet on the R7 series I believe. If Graphics Overdrive is already enabled turn up the fan speed. If the temperatures drop a bit then you know cooling is your problem buddy.

Please remember that the R7 250 isn't the greatest of cards so you are not going to get much better than Medium/Low settings on Black Flag.

Does your case have a nice amount of cooling too ? Ambient temperatures of your room ?

Also...what CPU do you have? if your CPU is maxing it can kick off heat too...
