What is interesting is I just tested my card with Unigine Heaven turned all the way up, and I am getting 90C @3000RPM as well, but my card isn't crashing at all.
I wonder what actually is the problem that causes your XFX to crash. I have all the cases fans turned down at the moment.

Edit: @1050/1500 it gets up to 96C and the card is still going
