xps L502X Temperatures

hi everyone

I checked that my computer's temperatures are a bit high while playing, especialy while playing Battlefield 3.

They reach 95ºC and i want to know if that is normal.

Here is a screenshot:

The screenshot is a big help.  The numbers look about right, especially with turbo boost turned on temps may peak that high.  I still suggest regular maintenance including diagnostics and cleaning up the vents. The following link is to a basic overheating troubleshooter,  it details running diags, and cleaning the vents.

When running the diagnostics start the notebook while tapping F12, choose diagnostics and allow the basic tests to complete,  once they are finished choose no to running memory diagnostics, choose yes to booting to the diagnostics partition, choose system tests, symptom tree, and then choose Problem with Fans or System seems hot.  Please reply back here with the results of the diagnostics.
