Graphic card running hot?

I recently bought a gigabyte 1660 super oc twin fan and it is running hotter than average. I have an inno3d 1660super as well and it runs 8-10 degrees cooler. Is it bad cooler design or did I get a bad piece ?
Airflow is not the problem since my case has good intake and exhaust and I tested other 1660 super with it although not the same one as mine.

Idle for my inno card is 42 , gigabyte is 49 , stock settings for both.

Load temps for Gigabyte reach 83 and it drops clock , fans spin at 90% so it gets to 79 after dropping clocks.

Inno maintain 75 without dropping clocks at 75% fan speed.

I guess I also have same model bought few weeks back and it maxes 78C under full load(haven’t checked clock speeds) and maintains 40ish idle
 
as above mentioned your card has dual-fan Aluminum block heat sink cooler which is not enough for 1660 super oc card ,
GTX 1660 SUPER Gaming OC 6G (triple slot fan )with beefy cooler has the idle temperature hovering around 42°C and in load it goes to 65°C
