That's within the thermal range, but seems a bit hot for only gaming. If that was a stress test I'd say you were fine, but just running a game should be cooler than that. I'd bet you either used too much or too little paste, or didn't get the cooler mounted correctly. Could also be an airflow issue through the case. Without enough airflow the CPU cooler can only do so much.
