My computer (Alienware x51 R2) has a GTX 960 but it keeps becoming hot, no matter what game I play. Even with minecraft it becomes 84°C. Thats the highest i've ever got but should I be worried?

More computer specs:
Fintek F71889AD
Intel Core i7-4790K
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960
TOSHIBA DT01ACA200
(Probably there is more but this is what I know I have xD)
 
Only be actually worried if it is frequently over 80 degrees F. As @Sergant_Sneaky said, adding a case fan or 2 would be a good idea, though by the pictures of it, I'm not sure that's possible. I like to put ice packs on my PC whenit gets hot, but that's not very safe as far as condensation.
 


Also almost 80°C
But my parents understand absolutely NOTHING about computers, I already asked for a replacing fan but they don't understand it -_-
I can't buy it myself, I have literally no money, I het €10 per month -_-
 


It isn't in Farenheit, in Farenheit this is 176° F .... That is worse
 

Around 80c isn't good for a CPU either, under 70c is ideal. Try showing them this thread to convince them maybe.
 

oh, that's really bad lol
 


Why are you saying 80°F is much? That would be the best computer temperature ever! (gamecomputer)
 

mine runs 70f, never had a computer over 120f lol.
