Is this VRM temperatures are fine for Gigabyte 970A-UD3P motherboard with FX-8350 CPU?

When I play Skyrim i get 60-66C VRM and 52C CPU temps (in cold days). In hot day they can heat up to 82C and 60C respectively. But in Catalyst Control Center CPU test (or how that thing named), at 4.3 GHz I get 65C CPU and 93(!)C VRM temps. I know that 93C isn't a maximum working temps for VRMs but it seems like it is close to maximum. I stopped tests because VRM temps are growed quite fast. It got from 50C (idle) to 93C in like 5 minutes. And I'm not sure that CPU is able to OC with my Artic Freezer A30 cooler because it's radiator is prety hot when I touch it (maybe 60-63C) while the fan spins at 1433 RPM. And I noticed that suddenly my CPU got slightly more power-hungry and it uses 140-160 Watts at 100% load at stock clocks instead of 120-140 when I tested it few months ago and 180 Watts at 4.6 instead of 170

I placed a high pressure 80mm fan on my VRM heatsink. It did wonders.
