clean ur PC and graphics card. And add extra fans

Yes diassemble whole PC and do a deep clean with a painting brush or somethin. Add some intake fans at front nd if possible attach some fans like it throws air to the graphics card.
Also does ur gcard has any fan? if no then attach any local small fans or stick one to ur heatsink or card.
