about checking the heat and reducing the clock speed:

try rivatuner, its free and not THAT hard to use. you can also regulate the fanspeed with it. and monitoring the temperature.

reducing voltage is a different thing, i think thats not possible without flashing the graphic cards bios...
Thank you very much for your suggestions.

I clean all visible areas with compressed air including any exhaust and intake fans I can find.

I've tried to use Rivatuner before but apparently my system doesn't allow manipulation of the fan controls because I was unable to change anything.
