Mileage may vary on this but I have had great success under-clocking my GPU to manage heat. ...
Not that I absolutely need to since I'm running a GTX 1070, but I've always got MSI Afterburner running.
For example, one of the previous models had me at 80-85C,
so I under-clocked from 1700MHz to 1200MHz Core and from 4,000 to 3,500MHz memory.
Presto, cool and comfy 68-72C.
I do the same when I'm gaming. I can still run Witcher 3 on my laptop at 60FPS under-clocked and hold a steady 70C, rather than the 85C it would otherwise run the game at.
