Those temps are quite high - did you assemble this yourself?

If so, make sure you applied CPU thermal paste correctly.

In terms of a graphics card, those cards should do well on most games at low resolutions. If your monitor is a high resolution (1920*1080 or higher), none of those cards would likely be adequate for playing games at high settings.

These temps look high Re-visit the CPU/heatsink assembly. Maybe re-do using Arctic Silver 5 or better thermal compound. Increase air flow as much as possible.

Those temperatures are far too high. Your idle CPU temperature should be 40 degrees Celsius or less.

Ubrales' tips are good.

ASUS boards will auto-overclock if you change certain settings in the BIOS. That could easily explain the high temperatures, as the stock CPU cooler can't handle even a mild overclock. The ASUS Suite II software likely has the CPU speed listed, so make sure it's at stock.
