So i got this card, the Diamond AMD Radeon HD 7970, it runs great on everything, gives me 100+ frames on almost everything that i play.

But when it runs its usually just shy of 80 Degrees Celcius, and one time it was at 85c after playing BF3 for some time.

I've tried running it open box and that didn't seem to change much, should i not worry?

Your gpu won't burn or something but did you overclock or something? 85c is on the high side but thats probably on full load. Maybe change your fan profile? I would start worrying if it gets to 90c.
