I don't see how that could be normal. Maybe my hardware is slightly overheating due to being on fan cooling. Thinking of switching to water cooled soon but don't want to water cool a setup I'm going to replace anyways.
First of all, don't water cool your current setup.

Second, it could be very normal depending on what your video settings are set at. The quad-core you're
currently boxing on can't handle a whole lot after the graphics engine update that came with Cataclysm.
You also don't list your video cards. You say they're nVidia GTX but, there are numerous nVidia GTX cards
available.
