i was thinking of changing just the GPU, doesnt cost too much..

What graphic card u planning to buy?

mine is acer 5800, i think i am going to change to i5/i7 if within my budget, if not, just change graphic card to maybe 560ti.. but worry that after changing gpu problem will persist what's your plan?

Safest solution is to change casing together with GPU.

As a guide, my gpu idle temp is 33-34 and under load max (overclocked) is only 65.

Your gpu idle temp is higher than mine while under load.
