Cooling issues

I don't know if this is in the right place but it includes an intel cpu so thought why not

my temps seem to be running higher than usual (i live in the UK) so i am wondering if the hot weather is having such a big impact

my cpu cores are idling between 31-38 (88-100f) and my gpu just below 40 (102), my mobo around 31 (88)

are these temps still okay? dont wanna game and they go through the roof

i cant remember what they we're on a cold day but im sure my cores we're running this hot under load last week

First, we need to know what your rig has in it, if you're OCed or not, etc.

Seems like you have adequate air flow. What's your ambient temps?

i cant remember what they used to be but gpu ambient is roughly cpu cores - 31-38 and gpu - 40 (on a warm day)

just been playing diablo 3 ( i have got a fan on to cool me so duno if it affects the temps but been getting low-mid 40s for cores although it went up to 49-56 (been taking screenshots lol) and my gpu is roughly 60 (varying from 57-60)

i cant get HDD and SSD temps as ive only got a trial version of AIDA, do they matter as much as gpu and cpu temps ?

mobo is 34/35
