My GPU is getting hot..

[Union Jack]

My GPU which is an nvidia GT is always real hot..its running at about 86 degrees Celsius idle...and before my game crashes I did measure it at 110!!
is it a broken card or is there anything i can do??
help would be highly appreciated!!

Get an external cooling fan for laptops & keep your computer elevated.

its a desktop pc..it has 2 other fans in it already not including the power pack.
its only a recent thing its done this...
what do you mean by elevated?..at an angle??

I just thought that you were talking about a lap top. Have you ran a full diagnostics test on your computer?

everything else seems ok...done a test,virus scan,defrag,temp tests on cpu...it is just the damn gpu..i knew they got hot..but literally 5 mins in to a game it gets red hot and dies.
its going to be looked at by pc world on friday so hopefully itll get sorted...
had nowt but trouble with stuff from there...
