What GPU temp on a 1070 should have me worried?

Just built my first desktop. Everything seems to be running great, except that my 1070 seems to be running a bit hot compared to some results I've seen (namely PCGamer saying they overclocked at 67 deg). Witcher 3 on 1440p Ultra is topping off at 77 degrees. Should I try to get more out of my cooling, or is that a reasonable number?
 
Solution
77c is fine, if you start going above 85c, then you may have an issue with airflow, or you may just need to turn up the GPU fans a bit. You could always make a custom fan curve in something like MSI Afterburner if you would like to knock a few degrees off of the temperature but it's not a necessity until 85c+.
