Hello, i am new to the pc community, i have recently built my first pc about a week ago, here is what i have

Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core

Corsair H100i 77.0 CFM Liquid (swapped out stock fans for Corsair Air Series SP120 High Performance Edition 62.7 CFM 120mm)

Asus MAXIMUS VII HERO ATX LGA1150
Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2400
Asus GeForce GTX 760 4GB ROG
Corsair 860W ATX12V / EPS12V
Corsair 760T White ATX Full Tower

additionally i have this program called corsair link, i have the option to put everything on "performance mode", also a driver i DL'ed for my GPU has the option to raise the fan speed %, by default its at the lowest (32) and the highest it seems to go is (98), should i be changing that for a game like this?

Will i safely be able to run BF4 without frying anything or over heating anything? I am nervous.
Also, what would be considered high/dangerous cpu/gpu temps for BF4.

Thank you very much in advance for whoever takes the time to help me, Its greatly appreciated.
 
If you don't OC you won't need to worry about temps, which BF4 isn't going to come close to requiring you to OC anyway. This is a console shooter, not a PC exclusive.

As for the system, it should be overkill for anything released on the consoles, such as your typical cross-platform shooter. The system is identical to mine, other than less RAM and a less powerful GPU. My system has no issues running any games at any resolutions.
