If you want to mine coal, you can have one big welshman with a huge pickaxe, but lots and lots of mexican children with spoons will get you more coal.

72C for a 7300GS is bad, I think..

Try leaving the case panel off and see results.

It is bad, since he said it's 72C idle. That should be a load temperature. He should have a side fan blowing on it.
