Here is what it is currently sitting at as of this posting. The GPU fluctuates constantly.

You should do "the works". I would try a repaste, use compressed air to blow all the dust out of the heatsink, verify all the fans are working. Make you have the latest drivers, uninstall and reseat the GPU onto the motherboard.

You can probably find a teardown video on YouTube for your specific you ( guide to taking it apart) and buy a thing of thermal paste from Newegg or amazon.

If you aren't already using it, get MSI Afterburner (free) and use it to set up a fan curve for your vid card fans.

is that idle or under load?

After downloading the MSI Afterburner software and cranking my fan to 100%, the thing is telling me the lowest it has gone is 38 and highest is 78. Lowest was when I was leaving the computer alone during a break from WoW and 78 was during playing.

under load thats fine tbh, if your concerned just apply better paste.
