Hi -
I am running a GtX 560Ti 1GB with dual / stock fans, also a Intel Q9550 with a Scythe Shuriken Rev. B HSF.
I can run Crysis 2 (and with fans 100%) - the temps are around 70deg C CPU and 80deg C GPU.

My Concern
However - Crysis 3 running at 1920 X 1080 - no graphical problems at all, just a *very* warm rig, both GPU and CPU are around 90-93 degrees at load. All fans are controlled by speedfan and are at 100%. I always have the side of my case OFF, and there is excellent ventilation throughout my case (also have a Nexus 120mm fan blowing across CPU, towards the exit vent at back. Case is an Antec P180.

As soon as I quit Crysis 3 - all temps go immed back to 50degrees, and both GPU and CPU idle around 40 degrees.

There are SOOOOOO many different views as to whether this is a problem - and before I remove the (very awkward) scythe HSF and reseat etc (I have already checked the firmness of it - and it seems very solidly on place on CPU) - I want to check with this main forum, if this is -dare I say it - 'normal' for this very demanding game?? Bare in mind both GPU and CPU are showing similar temps.

Thanks all in advance.
