80-90º is average
115º is threshhold
127º burnout

If high Remove the dust from the fan. Reapply thermal paste.
Regulate the fan with Rivatuner.

or EVGA Precision Tool if card is EVGA.

If the temperature is high, you have these choices:

1-after market cooler.

2-use rivatuner and just adjust the fan speed to higher.
my fan works always at 45% i get 50c idle. while at load it runs at 75% n maintain 70c

3- Update the video BIOS with one that will change the fan speed based on temp
EVGA, XFX, BFG

But I found out it not much of help since I've tried to increase it to 100% by using RivaTuner and now I've replaced it with TT DuOrb and works just GREAT, reducing my idle temp from 59C to 43C and full load from 75C to 53C.

On my 8800GT's Rivatuner reports the threshold as 100c.
