Have you tried to clean the dust under the fans/shroud ?
if yes:
get the compound like arctic MX-4.
remove the cooler by removing the screws from the back of the card.
clean the old compound from coldplate and GPU
apply new compound
assemble the card.
here is an example of how to disassemble the card - should be very similar on yours:

If you are not sure how to do it and afraid to do it alone, use the help of more experienced friend/family member.
