Are my Cpu Temp Way tooo high?

alright the first one is when i'm not doing anything on the computer the second one is when i'm playing diablo 3 , and right after i finish playing there usually at 60's i opened my computer case and cleaned out as much as i can i don't have a way to get a can of compressed air today /: is it okay to keep playing it like this until the next 2-3 days when i can get a can of compressed air or should i wait.. /:

The shortened version is basically you'll be ok but keep monitoring and get the temp down under 90c asap..

You could always try playing with the side panel off? Annoying I know but better that than a fried chip..

actually i just fixed it thinks for the help tho , i took off the cpu fan , and the cpu fan had become loose and wasn't holding down in there tight so i lifted it and the thermal paste was like cracking, so luckily for me i just fixxed the heatsink in other computer not to long ago so i had some spare thermal paste, put that down on the chip snapped the fan on and now i hit 40's idle and 70 and under while playing diablo 3 XD
