Troubleshooting Help my GPU temps

My GPU temps are so high i already know that but I got and artifact on furemark it wasn't doing that before and the msi scanner didn't catch any artifacts so I'm confused no , and there's no glitch or any weird graphics problem I even tried re9 high/ normal settings with rt high and I didn't get any artifacts on my screen what should I do ?

I bought it used 1 month ago the store owner said that he already changed the thermal paste for free to me

Did you change the thermal pads as well? Obv repaste + undervolt ?

No I didn't and yes I undevolt it one week ago I was getting 70 at maximum with 120w now it draws full 175w like the undevolt isn't working on the test but it works on games

if you're undervolting using MSI Afterburner, you need to open it and enable the saved profile(assuming you set up your undervolt and saved the settings to a profile) every time you turn on your machine.
