Are you using an Intel stock cooler (says Intel on the black fan) or do you have an aftermarket cooler? Do you have any case fans?

Ok well depending on your budget and what will fit in your case, you will want to upgrade to an after market cooler like a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo or whatever is the newest in the 212 series for like $30-35 or a Deepcool GAMMAXX 400 for aorund $20-25. You could go for an even better cooler for $60-90, but you might not need it.

As Third-Eye said, get a better cooler. I've got the same processor and have run the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo on it with zero heating issues even when pushing all the cores and processes with any number of high frame rate, high settings games. Been doing this cooler on my intel cpus for years.
