Graphics Card Temps too High?

So i just finished problem with the CPU being too hot on my new build now this. It's turning out to be more trouble then it's worth so far. I just tested my EVGA GTX 680 FTW+ 4GB on the Sleeping Dogs demo with Extreme graphics setting on and the GPU was running at 80C with 59% fan speed. Is that fine? And what's the speed i should keep my fan running at when it gets to 80C? I don't want to decrease the life of my GPU fan already. Also, how hard is it to replace a GPU fan after it fails? Can i just send it back to EVGA and pay a little fee for them to fix/replace it? Thanks for any help.
 
80C isn't bad, 85 is about the max you want before it begins to loose life, and 80 is about the max on benches and they use stock cards for that, not overclocked ones like yours.
