No it doesn't seem that temp is a good thing. Clean it, clean your case. Get some airflow to it. Also make sure each fan works. The fans connected/Heatsink on there ok?

Yeah, that's a problem. My GTX 650 never went over 66°C (About 150°F) when I was mining DogeCoins with it. (Meaning I was using it at full force).

Try using HWMonitor (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html) to see if it gives you a different temperature.

Make sure all your fans are spinning. Clear out any dust. If nothing helps try returning it, there could be something wrong with it. It shouldn't be running that hot at idle.
