I just bought my R9 280X Toxic today and tried playing SWTOR (Can obviously handle it with ease) and im getting 64C.. Is this normal? and is it bad for my card to be getting that hot? at idle its at 42C.

Completely normal; My GTX 760 can reach those temps in games like BF4, and it uses considerably less power than your card.

64°C under load is just fine for that card.
