Those idle temps are definitely too high, and 87c under stress is stretching the limit. Is this a new GPU? It's possible you got a faulty one and just need to get it replaced.

I mostly speak from my own past experience from similar problems. My solution may not work for you, but I'll always try my best to help as much as I can. If you want me to see your reply, make sure to quote my comment or mention me @WaggishOhio383, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Seems like bad airflow or profile. A card like that shouldn’t be that hot otherwise. 
Also don’t see a point in the extra voltage and power for such a card either.
