I have been testing my Gpu temps with 3d mark and msi afterburner. I have put my fan speed to max on msi and when running time spy on 3d mark I have been getting around 80 C room temp is around 23 C. Is this an issue and if it is how should I fix it.

My specs: Intel core i7-3770
NVIDIA GeForce 1050-ti
Samsung QVO 1TB SSD
Corsair 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 1333 MHz

UPDATE: So i replaced the thermal paste inside the GPU and something surprising happened. As I said, the original test showed 80c in 3d mark so today I decided to replace the paste, which was probably very old since it was a used product. The thermal paste in the Graphics card was hard so it took a bit to get it off. But ruining the tests with new paste today showed an interesting result. Average temp at 100% load was down to around 45C and max temp that it reached was about 50C. Shows how much of a difference that thermal paste can make!
