Couple a days ago i started to play Far Cry 3 on default(optimal) settings. As with some previous games i have experienced that laptop gets very,very hot,especially where the fan is. I also have the cooling pad with two fans,but still it was way too hot. Then i decided to lower settings to low and i also reduced the resolution from my native to 1366x768 but the problem was still there. Then i began measuring the temperatures,and on these lowered settings they were at about 80 degrees for the cpu and gpu which i consider to be very hot. I don't know why is this happening,could it be a problem with the fan(although it does blow out a lot of hot air) or maybe a failure of something inside the laptop?

SPECS (Acer Aspire V3-771g): i5 3210m
Gt630m (2gb version)
6gb
17,3'' 1600x900

* i do not have any problems with the performance of the gpu,i mean on optimal settings it was about 25-35 fps which is ok, the problems are only with the temperature
