Do I have a GPU temperature problem? GTX 770 SC

[n62]

I have an EVGA GTX 770 SC (4gb). Idle temps seem fine at 27-28C, but under load I'm getting 71-78C and I hit 80c once. What concerns me is that benchmarks and reviews for this card report temps in the 60s under load and nothing really approaching 80.
For the record, my CPU core temps range average 23-27C when idle, and 46-52 when gaming (i5 4670k, Hyper Evo 212).
Does it look like I have a problem with my GPU temps, maybe a case airflow issue?
Thanks

P.S. Case is Cooler Master Storm Enforcer, one 200mm intake (front), one 200m exhaust (top), one 120mm exhaust (rear).

No, you do not have temp problems. The temps are usually high in all Nvidia cards. Though, you can lower the temps by having a better case, and dust off the case sometimes. But your case is decent, so you really dont have to buy another one.

Thanks. When I get home tonight I think I'll try running it with the case side panel off and see what kind of temp drops I get on the GPU. I guess that will be the best way to determine if the temps are due to airflow?

You have with AXC cooling card?

I do apologies for what might already be solved? Have you attempted to manually adjust the fan curves with the EVGA Precision X software?

I wouldn't really worry about the bench tests as your temps whilst gaming are fine and a bench pushes your card to the absolute limit but adjusting the fan curves should reduce the temp if unhappy with what you're achieving.
