Did you applied thermal paste on the CPU? The cooler is firmly seated on it?

+1 to the above. What case do you have? Does the cpu cooler fan spin, what is the fan configuration for the system? What do you mean by overheating? Does the system shut down or what are the temps you are seeing? This gpu dumps all the cards heat into the case. It is expected that the case airflow is sufficient to remove the heat and bring cool air for card cooling. Since this is a very powerful gpu, you can bet it is working hard during your playing.

I HAVE "BULZER GRAVITY". YES THE CPU COOLER FAN IS SPINNING .IHAVE 2 FANS FOR CPU CASE AND ONE ON THE PROCESSOR.
WHEN IAM PLAYING GAME MY SMPS WHICH IS CHEAP HAS GONE .SO IBOUGHT CORSAIR VS 450 TO BETTER USE.WHEN IAM PLAYING GAME DARKSIDERS 2 MY PSU GETS HEATED AND EXITS OUT AUTOMATICALLY.

if your CPU is heating up too much still, try taking the cooler off and then re-apply your thermal paste while making sure you don't put too much or too little (a pea-sized dot right in the middle should do). as for your GPU, 98C is the maximum limit so if your GPU is stay under that you should be fine.

next time you play darksiders 2, put your hand on the PSU and tell us if it's hot or warm.

What are your actual temps in-game?

FINALLY I FORGOT TO SAY WHILE PLAYING GAME THE TEMPS ARE AROUND 67-70

 

[anilmadireddy]

AND AGAIN TO SAY MY CASE HAVE FANS WHICH BLOW AIR UOTSIDE ONLY BUT NI INBLOWING FANS.BUT FOR PSU,GPU,PROCESSOR HAVE THEIR OWN FANS

[SirDrannik]

Those are good temps. Pretty good actually. Where I live, the wheather is hot, and could get to 80-90 sometimes.

Is the system shutting down or giving Blue Screens? What exactly do you think os happening when you say overheating?
