First, i try to get the 'i' and 'GPU engine'  donw, but the temp still go to 90 degree.

anyone can help me improve the cgminer conf?

thanks.

Is your rig enclosed in a case?  If so, you will need to have the case open with a fan blowing directly at the GPU.  This will get it down to low 80.  Not pretty but effective.

What he said. I would also set your fan speed to auto in your cgminer config.
