Hello, my gaming PC has been over heating recently with any game I play to the point of the cpu getting so hot that the bios turns it off.

my specs:2x gtx760's via sli
1300 watt power supply
34gigs of ram
6tb's
gigabyte board, system model: GA-990FXA-UD3
AMD FX-8350(it is not over clocked)
rosewell throne case with 8 fans
coolermaster N520 heatsink.
My air flow is all going to the back of my pc and I replaced my thermal paste plenty of times, cleaned my pc, made sure my cable management is okay, I have no idea what's wrong.

Perhaps you have far more intake air than exhaust, this can cause heat issues. How many fans do you have blowing the air into the case and how many out? What are the sizes of the fans?

backwards fans perhaps? Open case panel and turn on to make sure fans are spinning in the correct direction. Possibly turn fans on TURBO via the bios. make sure CPU fan is very tight.

Are you sure it is the CPU overheating? Do you have a temperature monitor going? could it possibly be the SLI you have? I like to add an Exhaust cant above my SLI setup.
