Is this dangerous or is it like normal for the computer to not recognize it as danger. Like the human body for instance, ideally 98.6 degrees would be hell but it just dosen't affect us. (as far as omg my body temp is 98 degrees sooo hot) im guessing same with the computer?s

that temp is actually around idle temp, so it is around the normal temperature when the cpu is not doing anything.
cpu typically runs @ 60+ C (that's 140+F) and above depending on the cpu itself and the cooler

gpu's run even hotter than that, there were GPU's before that reaches 80c (170F)

these are normal

i'm gonna assume you're talking about degrees in Fahrenheit which is completely different then degrees in Celsius. Your computer will always shut off as a safety precaution if your CPU/APU reaches 90+ celcius. Like what was said a normal cpu on minimal to full load shouldn't get higher then 40-50 degrees 30-40 idle. Theirs no, "set" normal pc temp as ambient temp can very from state to state home to home. Just make sure it's within the parameters.

Gpu's on the other hand usually run 50c to 75c under load and idle 40c-50c. Generally speaking some run hotter others lower results will vary it's normal to reach those temps.

If by chance you're reaching 50c on idle on your cpu chances are you got a faulty/failing cooler. I'd recommend buying an after market hyper 212 plus great cooler less then 30 bucks and it should kill any temp issues you're having or are worried about. This is all assuming you don't over clock that is. In which case thats a whoooooole different ball park.

If you're using Fahrenheit you're golden. Mostly depends on the particular card you have but nowadays cards can go up to around 270 degrees Fahrenheit before issues arise.
