My Cpu is the I7-4790k. With little to nothing running my temp averages around 37 c, whilst most games can be anywhere from 45 -65 (not sure if these temps are ok) HOWEVER I noticed when playing Counter Strike Go, as well as Insurgency, that my CPU temp suddenly rises, averaging anywhere from 70- 86.I have the cooler master hyper 212 evo. I didn't build the PC, I had it built at a shop, so haven't look deeply into the guts of the PC. There's a lot of airflow within the case though, and I did clear a lot of dust from it a couple of days ago.

Observing inside my case I do notice that my CPU cooler is slanted slightly to the right, dunno if this could indicate an issue.
So my questions are, are these temps too high, and what do you think could be the issue/remedy for this? Thanks
