My GPU runs around 60 degrees while using it. Please help

My laptop specs:

That should be normal. Most of the time the GPU and the CPU are connected to the same heatpipe in a Notebook. So they should share almost the same temps. If you use just the cpu internal graphics then just the cpu core will heat up, but if you use the GTX as well then both components produce heat together and all that heat has to be exchanged over the same heatpipe and gets a little hotter. While 80°C is not low in a desktop setup, in a notebook that can be considered as normal as the mobile components tend to support much higher tempertures.
