219.2 ºF is nothing to be worried about... *sarcasm* that's pretty high. the normal boiling point of water is 99.97 degrees Celsius, you can now make soup on your gpu!

dude, you baking some transistors, the reference cooler for the 4870 x2 needs to be cleaned of dust every month, or temperatures such as urs are experienced, but if you want to be on the completely safe side and lower temps by half, get this

60C~70C playing with set up to 45%~50%, just once fogot to wear my glasses and accidentally sat up the fan to 20%, which brought my GPU to 104, had HWM running on 2ND monitor, how did i know? i heard the fan going to full load! from some reason, and then i noticed the temps...

keep an eye on temps, if it breaks 100 again, take measures suggested above
