My GTX 980 seems like it's having a heatstroke or something. With the fanspeed on 100% (something I don't typically do but I just want to illustrate the problem) my card idles at 40C and goes up to 74C load, again, with the fan speed fully cranked. With a more appropriate fancurve my card easily shoots up to the point of severely throttling.
Something worth noting is that this is the case even after my PC has been off for hours (just got back from work), so I'm not sure if this is a problem with the case's overall airflow.
Has it come time to replace the card or could there be something else at hand?
Below is the fan curve I'd typically use
