Its so loud I can hear it playing through my headphones. Why in the world is my GPU temping so high when every other game doesnt get out of the low 70s?

Why is my GPU usge staying pegged at 99%?? There is absolutely NO fluctuation just a straight line. Its not my card, my fan, or my box. Every other game doesnt have this problem.
Do you have the side on your case?? Open case if so that will allow much more fresh air into components. You can also get a small clip fan and clip to case and blow directly onto GPU
