His 4850 512mb running very hot!

Hi all

Last night whilst playing company of heroes online with this His 4850 gfx card.
I minimised coh and checked the temps in the ati ccc.
It was running at 102c :O
So, i took it apart and removed a shed load of dust.
Now, i run the fan at 70% and man this fan is way too loud, i ran it at 70% and it is idling at 56-62c.
That seems hot to me seeing how the fans are at 70%, I'm sure before i removed the fans it used to idle anywhere between 45-52c.
Is this to hot?
Because no doubt now, under strain the heat will go near 100c every time?
What's the maximum and recommended temps to run these cards at?

Thanks
