I can run mine at 100% for 8 hours and its still fine. But I have a fan sitting in my case pushing more air than you could poke a stick at on top of the 3 fans that came with the comp.

I think i'm running close to it with my laptop playing PR during this humid summer

I have a fan sitting next to my laptop. Keeps it tolerable.

Without it the GPU sits around 90-95C when gaming, and it impacts performance.

Not with this PC, but my old Athlon used to be overheating like a b*tch in the summer

What I don't like is that the cooling fan/hot air outflow thingy is right under the 'W' key. So when you are sprinting your fingers are right over the hottest part of the laptop.

Maybe I have to invest in a desktop fan.

wan my and my friends host LAN parties we turn off the heater and its about 32 or below out side and we get it up to 80 in side just off of the PC. lol and in the summer man it get HOT!! even with the AC some of the PC turn off because they over heated. i burned my finger good one time on the back of the tower one time. lolz

4 or 5 years ago too the fan on my CPU exploded trying to keep the CPU cool. there was nothing left of the blades and i dented the tower too. we even had a tower catch on fire PC fire man they smell bad!

only a true hardcore gamers and firends

Or a USB keyboard perhaps?

To the OP - time for a good cleaning out of the dust or a better heatsink/fan or like others take the cover off and have a house fan blowing in there.
