I'm trying a laptop cooler but it doesn't do much.
It could be dusty but I'd have to open it and check.

Thing is, nVIDIA website says the max operating speed is around 100ºC.
Not to mention, even relatively inactive, my GPU still hovers around 80ºC, so it's not like madVR makes the temp shoot up like crazy. Is the throtelling threshold lower than advertised?
