For some reason, the gpu temperature of the GT750m in my laptop heats up to about 91 C when playing graphics intensive games. I was just playing Arkham origins with all the settings turned on to the highest possible values and with 2x MSAA, but I noticed the hot air blowing out through the vents at the side of the laptop. Even placing my finger there felt like placing it in fire. MSI Afterburner recorded temperatures of 91 to 95 C, even without overclocking. Is this temperature safe for a laptop GPU? If it isn't, what can I do to fix it?

You could literally cook eggs at that temp, recommend you should use Google to get cooling answers, as I don't have much experience with laptops.

Yes, it's safe temperature. Laptop GPUs and CPUs are designed to go to 100C most of the time, an you'll have a hard time keeping them too much cooler under normal circumstances. 90s under load are nothing to worry about, if you hit 100 then you might have some airflow problems somewhere.

That would be a tad warm even by laptop standards, get a can of compressed air and blow out the vents (or open the thing up and blow out the fans if you're comfortable doing that)

You could consider buying a USB cooling pad which should also shave off a few degrees
