It can easily reach 120 degrees at the valley floor (+/- 200 ft below sea level), the record is over 130. It may be 80-90 in the high mountainroads at the same time.
That being said, Death Valley NP ranges in in elevation from +7000 ft to -200 ft, and altitude will significantly affect temperature. If you want to see the sights without the 120 F heat, visit in Feb-Mar timeframe when it's comfortable (50-60 F) at the valley floor. You can also see snow up in the mountain roads at this time. If lucky, you can see the wildflowers blooming.
