GPU temperature

I am having problems with my graphics card overheating. Every time I am playing CSS my card tends to be really hot. Its a 7300 Gt. The temp has reached 121 degrees celcius. And I have no clue whats going on.

This DTS' friend. I have looked at it and it's not overclocked and the fan is running. I couldn't figure out what was wrong.
