So you have your PC in a warm area, are overclocking the card and are using the stock fan curve and are surprised your temps are warmer than usual? Back off on the overclock, undervolt your card and set up a better fan curve. More importantly, why do you have your PC in such a warm room? 27c translates to roughly 81F. Your ambient temps directly correlate to your hardware temps. If you start in a warmer setting the delta T over ambient will be higher as the components warm up, this is just simple physics. Given all those factors, your card only being at 81C seems perfectly reasonable.

The overclock reduces temps by 1-2c. Still hovers around 79c. Thought ambient temps only directly correlate to idle temps, not load temps since as long as the air moving over the gpu is lower in temp then it will cool it. Its just a lot higher than what others are getting. Its a 3070 not a 3080. When I max the fans it doesnt drop all that much, only to around 77c 76c.

Overclocking does NOT reduce temps that's not a thing and never will be. All temperatures are influenced by ambient temps not just idle. That's why sites like GamerNexus doesn't actually list temps in most of their reviews but only the Delta T over ambient values as that's all that's really relevant. Some times they do list load temps but they will specify the ambient conditions for said test. Most sites that do list load temps try to do so in controlled settings like they regulate to the best of their ability the ambient temperature so they all have a similar starting point. 
 
Yes passing lower temperature air over a heatsink will help wick away the heat absorbed in it, but if you are passing warmer air over the heatsink than another one, it will directly affect it's temperature. The GPU generates a heat load that exponentially increases based on ambient temperature. It's not just "this is the temp, that's it no matter what the outside factors are". That's not how it works. A warmer climate will result in a warmer CPU or GPU. They may be both only raising 50C over your ambient but one that started 5-6C higher than the other will be warmer = both are radiating the same amount of energy into the atmosphere.

I meant removing the overclock reduces temps by 1-2c. Soo say my ambient temps were 20c. What would my load temps be on the GPU given the temps I listed? Is this normal?

Take it apart and do a repaste perhaps.

I have an aggressive fan curve so fans are 100% at 70c but typically it stays at 50-57c on core and hot spot is around 11-13 higher gaming at 1440p for me.
