Yea but high end cards have often heated up like this.
95c wont harm the card.
The 6800 GT/Ultra used to heat up to the 90s too and people still have theres today.

I've heard people suggesting to try to mount a fan over the top of the cards, seems to help a bit with temps if your worried.
Not forgetting more recent cards like the 8800GT and 4870 which could easily break the 90 degree barrier, like I've said before in many threads the heat and noise is greatly over-exaggerated.
Providing you have a reasonably good case in terms of airflow, and your mainboard allows a bit of space between the cards you'll be fine.
