68 Degree F is just a bit warm for outlet air temp. from a well operating Direct expansion (DX) system. However, this indicates the system is at least working. If the unit can not keep the temperature difference of the occupant space to greater than 5 degree on days where outside temperatures are over 82 degree, then the unit although working properly is undersized for the building. The heat load of the building is greater than the unit can overcome. Typical cooling days are over 82 degree so I would resize and possibly replace the unit with a larger unit, or take steps to reduce the heat load of the building.

No, the air conditioner outlet temperature being 68 degrees is normal. If the inside temperature is equal to or less than 5 degrees lower than the outside temperature, it may indicate that the unit is not operating efficiently, but it does not automatically mean it needs to be replaced. It could be a sign of other issues that can be diagnosed and fixed by a professional technician.
