Idle? Yes. Playing, nah.
Also, stock CPU cooler, I guess?

My GPU is usually about 80* when playing and that's completely healthy. Keep on playing ;D

mine runs under load at about 70C with ~50% fan speed higher than that and i start to get worried about the damage prolonged heat may do

100% usually is too loud (and it is stock, so it must be horrible) and lowers the lifespawn of your collers. I set all my coolers to work at max ~80% (but they are not stock and can handle the temps without problem)
Try it. If it gets too hot, set it back to 100%

Run away, it is gonna BLOW!!
Just kidding, the temps are good... Kind of.
You should look for a better Cooler. My Overcloked I5-2500K is running at 4.5GHz and my temps are better than yours.
I have never playied Dirt 3, so I dont know how much demanding it is, but your GPU temp is a little too high for my taste.
I use a GTX660TI (with should be on the same level of yours HD78**) with stock cooler (ohhh god, how it sucks) and a game must be REALLY HEAVY to make me hit ~60Cº. So far only Max Payne 3 and a heavilly modded Crysis 1 made me hit those temps.
Anyway, in the end of the year im getting a Accelero Xtreme, and my gpu will be cold forever.

Really? Are you water cooling? My CPU cooler for my 4.2ghz is as big as I can fit in without having to remove the side of my case or ram, and I reach 50+ degrees. Also I use a GTX 770, and the fans only start speeding up when it reaches 80 degrees, and thats ideal for it.

A bit hotter than my build gets, but I have an aftermarket CPU cooler and my chassis is an airflow beast.
As others said, just get a can of compressed air, open up the side and clean everything out :)

I had a freind whose temps were getting between 60-70 degrees celcius. He wasn't too worried, until I converted it to fahrenheit....
If I remember right, that may have been idle.

No that's good temps. When playing games GPU's temprature averages at around 90 degrees celcius. It's because I overclocked my GPU, and it only has a heat sink and no fan. I've had it for around 3 months and only had a problem once, where my GPU had started burning up a little bit.
