That's pretty hot. So your BF3 temps' aren't too bad.

If you've blow your case out and raised your fan speed then you can also try re-seating your cpu cooler -

Remove the cooler and fan. Use isopropyl alcohol to clean the old thermal paste off the top of the cpu and bottom of the cooler.
Apply a pea size drop of new Arctic Solver thermal paste to the center of the cpu and replace the cooler and re-connect the fan
