I recently bought a R9 270x Sapphire 4 GB and checking that the temperature reaches 90-93 ° C with the fans at 100%. I have changed the thermal paste, I press the screws more to hold it and it happens exactly the same as the temperature does not drop, even when you uncover the case it is kept at 88-89 ° c. It is worth mentioning that the ambient temperature is 30 ° c.
What is the problem with the card?
some problem with the layers or with the VRM ... help

I did a little looking around apparently you can fry eggs on this thing. As long as it isn't thermal throttling you should be ok. It would seem that 85c to 90c is normal for that gpu, sounds crazy but it's very common it would seem. You have already addressed the thermal paste so aside from changing fan profile and adding more case fans, not much to do but game on. You are in a very warm climate so that doesn't help at all.
