For the CPU i can only think to suggest checking that the CPU cooler is tightened down securely. May have come loose during transit.

Also, check that all fans in the case are working properly :)

If you can give us a pic of it, it'll help us advise you :)

You could always call up tech support if you don't feel confident doing it on your own :) may just be a case of reattaching the fans and tightening the screws :)

tightening that up should improve your GPU temps too, you could always clear some of the dust and stuff gathered in your GPU fan(s) to improve temps and get some more case fans (i recommend akasa venoms/apaches)

I thought the cpu fan is only on clips.Strange,because there was no any screws inside the case.Fan just hanging.Its possible the guy who build my pc made a mistake like that? Anyway i will post picture tomorrow.:(

no something like this may have happened during delivery, is it just the fan or the whole heatsink?

if its just on clips, it should be pretty simple

so is the heatsink (the metal block, probably silver) is still fully attached? and the fan is hanging down

is it hanging right down? ie just above the graphics card?

are the clips attached to the fans still? it should be pretty simple, just clip them over the cooler (on the right of the heatsink when looking at it)

There should be two metal clips that go onto the fan that secure it to the cpu cooler. Sounds that the fan isn't getting rid of the heat, hence the high cpu temps. Should be a simple job of just clipping it back onto the cpu cooler :)

By screws, i thought the cpu cooler was loose, not the fan :p

Thank You verry much for help :) I dont know about clips if they still with fan or silver block.What if they stay with fan an what if clips stays on silver block?It makes any difference? And what if i put it back?Shold temperature drops a lot?I know cpu have cooler but now i see its not enough.

if they are attached to the fan itself, it should be fine, if they have snapped and are on the heatsink (or maybe at the bottom of the case) not so good

Your temps should drastically drop, as by sounds of it now, it sounds like nothing is blowing over the cpu cooler..
