Those temps are fine. I assume you're using the stock Intel cooler? The 158 x 23 is just your base clock and multiplier. When you times them together you get your processor's frequency and in this case, 3634Mhz is fine.

Not at all. Those processors are set to throttle around 100c I believe; so anything under 75-80c is completely safe! 67-68c in Battlefield is normal and nothing to worry about :D
