gt 520 heats up to ~ 106 degrees

Hi, recently my monitor started to turn off (but the computer continued to work) while playing or watching a video, it turned out that I had not changed the thermal paste for about 3 years and this is such a protective reaction of the computer against overheating, after that I changed the thermal paste to kpt- 8, the computer stopped "turning off" by itself but did not overheat, after ~ 7 minutes of playing, for example, in Skyrim, the video card warmed up to ~ 106 degrees, but it was just ~ 60 on the desktop (infa from msi afterburner) and this even after I removed overclocking, I decided to change the thermal paste again by smearing a layer thinner, after that on the desktop msi gave out 45 degrees, but I did not have time to play 15 minutes in Skyrim as FPS dropped from 60 to 16-25 I left the game and msi gave 103 degrees, later the temperature fell to 60 and did not fall below (on the work table)
What do you advise? Yes, the gt 520 is budgetary even for 2012, but I don't have the opportunity to buy another one yet: with

Fahkeet It depends on
what kind of 120 mm you buy, but most, which go from 300 rubles, have connectors for connecting to the motherboard, or directly to the power supply.
In short, the main thing is to have a desire. =)

epic advice to take, thermal paste is more expensive than the vidyuhi itself, KPT-8 is the very thing for her. You can finally burn everything with liquid metal. Who advises so, about iron on the forum you live in your fictional world? For example: I have a gt 520, the guro advisor replies yes, take the GTX 1080 and everything will fly with you. Don't you understand that such people have no money, and they will sit on such hardware for 5 years until the iron dies.
