Hi there, (read all below)
I recently upgraded my system with a 780 ti and new power supply, making it gaming masterpiece, I for one am very happy.
However, upon looking at temperature data I have noticed that my motherboard stays at a constant temperature of 115 degrees C! Yes, you heard me, 115 degrees C! It pops up to 116 degrees C at load or when it feels like it.
Now my motherboard is the following: http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/H81MA/overview/
Feel free to browse the above website, for more info. Now I know a lot about this stuff like ins and out of PCs however here I am at a loss. My air flow is good, my chassis is good, I mean it's cheap but good, the fans are working constantly, my GPU is fine, my power supply is excellent and hasn't failed, I have had NO blue screens/crashes of any kind, and yet my motherboard/software is saying my mobo is hotter than Katy Perry in the sahara, and she's pretty hot. As to rule out anything, I put windows in the default 'balanced' power setting rather than the high performance one, yet no change. The only thing that's going high performance is my GPU but with the entire PC at a balanced option, it should have gone down considerably, but as of yet no change.
All I can say is the temp sensors are faulty but I'm not sure and a new mobo is not what I want right now, as the trouble is too much.
So, any thoughts? I need help, MAYDAY, MAYDAY, remember though that I have experienced nothing to cause this. And the side panel is fairly cold, being nowhere near warm.
HELP

And if you play Crysis 3 maxed out and your pc doesn't shut down then u are definitely okay!
I am just going to play down to a dodgy sensor, quite why it is wrong i have no idea but again thanks for your help. And that's the thing, I have played games on it happily without any problems so yh.
