I have a AMD FX 6300 and Radeon 7790 DirectCU II 2GB
When i was playing Borderlands 2 today it started going crazy. My fan speed was at 80%
What are the normal CPU and GPU temperatures while gaming...For example playing Skyrim.
I need to know whether i'm overheating and if so how to fix it.

Well, it depends on your cooler whether you have high temperatures or not. With a good cooler, the CPU will reach approximately 60 degrees max while on 100% load. But monitor your temperatures both idle and load and write them down here so we could come to a conclusion. Overheating is only fixable with a better cooler or reapplying cooling paste (If the components are intact)

It's a heat problem I could say right away actually. Check your temperatures while in game and tell me. Download HWmonitor http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html

GPU Idle: 31C
CPU Idle: 30C
GPU Gaming:48C
CPU:30C <---wtf is the program not working?
This was during Skyrim. Me climbing the mountain to reach the Greybeards...Ill need to do more testing probably...also this "overheating" happened in Borderlands 2 when i was talking to someone...no action or anything. Then my screen started flashing random colors and glitching out and No it wasn't a Game Glitch.

Which cooler do you have? The stock or a aftermarket?

Stock Cooler. If you could find me an AMD Cooler that would fit into a NZXT 210 Source Case that would be amazing. Also I have 1 pre-installed 120mm fan that was built onto the case
