check for dust in the heatsink/fan

 

that restrits air flow and insulates, which will get your temps up.

Yes, My old core 2 duo got its paste dry after a few years of use, and it ended up almost doubling (!) the load temps.

I have my 570 (MSI Power Edition) overclocked with a custom fan setup, and it doesn't go over 72-3 degrees celsius

As for the disassembly of the cooler, all I can say is take the card out, look up how thick the thermal pads are more or less, get some new ones, along with good thermal paste (MX-4?). Once you have everything ready, unscrew the radiator, and try to either remember, draw out on a piece of paper or whatever to remember where the pads and the screws where and look up how to re-apply all the thermal interface somewhere on youtube, there are few methods.

Once done, just screw the radiator back in place, hook up the fan and it should be ok.

a gpu thermal stuff replacement tutorial (note there's no thermal pads on that one).

Lastly. If you don't want to do that, try ramping up fans via some software (e.g. MSI Afterburner), my setup below (except it's a twin frozr III cooler)

You can set up a custom curve by simply dragging the dots around.

Hope it helps.

Tell us how you've done, (maybe make a picture or 2 as well :P)
