This is only happening when playing the secret world or witcher 3 i've monitored the temps and everything is within normal ranges witcher 3 getting it to about 78C I have changed the fan controls since it would only get to around 30% after hitting 70C, now it goes to 50% at around 65C this has seemed to fix the secret world but I still can't play witcher for more than 5 minutes until this happens.

I have the furmark test's iv'e run for reference if anyone wants to take a look.

Forgotten,

Check out TSW's client and make sure you're doing DX9 instead of 11 (there's a known issue with DX11 with that game) I loved TSW but haven't played in a year because Funcom didn't care to optimize the game for NY RAID and Edi.
Also Witcher 3 has a TON of problems with graphics. http://forums.cdprojektred.com/threads/36810-Crashing-within-5-Minutes-of-Playing-nVidia-GTX-970

I don't think it is a hardware issue I think its a graphics driver issue with some of the games.
