I just built myself a new PC, (specs in ma sig)

and i want your reccomendations on the airflow:

 

I have a fan in the back that is blowing air out and one fan in the front that is blowing air in the case.

the GPU gets up to 60 degrees when playing minecraft on full settings

and when just browsing and installing a driver it gets up to 37 degrees.

The cpu gets up to 40 degrees when having 5 programs open (software installer,afterburner,Utorrent,Chrome with 15 tabs)

it all seems okey but the case gets warm to the touch so im freaking out because i dont want to fry dem 780 GTX (niether the i5 LOL)

any tips or is this okey?

thanks in advance

I have to physically turn my computer off to get temps like that. if anything, your case is acting as another heatsink.

Don't worry about temps. generally processors are extremely reliable, you have to put them under a surprising amount of abuse in order to properly kill one. you normally only have to worry about temps once they get to around 95.

Single tab Chrome browsing and my GPU and CPU are both at 35c, so rest assured your temps are normal.
