Considering your ambient temp yes is it normal, 81 degress is extremely fine for GPU's. Summer is coming who has a high end custom watercooling setup will experience a little higher temps too !!

Little high but he's only given one temp so it could be other parts of the card or even another part of the gpu over heating..

Check with GPU-Z it will show more temps of the card on different area's of the GPU and the VRM temp(s).

Make sure you tick the box at the end of the list of the temps to keep monitoring while out of focus.

little high, but you can improve your case airflow, some dust clean up, better thermal paste would make it little bit cooler

OOh you only get 1 temp reading for the GPU although temp does look fine.

Mine is from the 6xxx range but it gives better temp readings which have proved very useful in the past.

Here's what i mean. I noticed once the gpu temp 1 was about 20-30c difference due to bad paste.
