    Ouch. That's more than boiling.
    I hope you aren't using it in your lap.

    Are all the fans running?
    Is the heat sink making good contact with the processor?

    I've seen mine reach as high as 113C in WoW, 105 in 3dmark06

    Not sure if that's normal or what...

    At 401 bios it reached 68 max on idle and 78 max load. With 601 idle is 70 and max is stlll 78 and the temp drops really quickly. No other differences though really.

    Ntune would not install in Vista, it said I did not have compatible hardware.
