I ahve had this card a while now, and I recently Updated the Drrivers to the new 78.01, My core temp while idle is aroun 68C, but my temp while gaming is arounf 85-90C...Is this too high? The default Cut off is 120C, but 90C still seems high too me....

I apologize for My Noob ness :)
 
No, that's not too high. It is enough to cook an egg. Jk.

That's definitely too high IMO. You should definitely invest in better cooling device. I have a 6800 ultra on stock fan and it idles at 51 C and load it comes up to 60C.
 
What would you suggest?

I have 120MM fan on the backblowing in, a 90 MM on the top blowing out, and 2 90MM fans on the removeable side panel, Blowing in. I have room for one more on the Side panel, which would put one Blowing in directly onto the Card...is this worth tryin, or Is there a better Option for me too try?
