Room Temperature: 30-40 degrees celcius.
GPU idle temperature: 40-50 degrees celcius.
GPU 99% load temperature: 70-75 degrees celcius MAX.

Are these temperatures OK?
 
Solution
You have to think about what the room temperature was at the time, the best way to think about it is temperature over room temperature. If it's 25C and the card idles at 32C you're looking at a difference of 7C. If it's 45C and the card is idling at 52C it's actually equivalent.

You also need to remember that if you use the card and heat it up, it can take time to cool back down again, even if you're not doing anything strenuous. I believe AMD is still rating their cards with a maximum operating temperature of 95C so you're not even close there.

I am worried because the time I just unboxed and used my GPU, temperature was around 32 degrees celcius at idle.
