My friend was playing a game on my PC(Beseige to be clear) and I noticed my PCwas running louder than usual. So I opened it and everything was really hot, even outside of the case. All the fans were spinning properly. I then realised I never replaced the thermal compound on the processor because the stuff on the heat sync was barely used(derp) but i put New compound on the cpu and it seemed fine. Should I be good?

Run the game, run it for a good while, and alt tab to the program if you don't have a second monitor to display it in.

Temps above 80°c imo aren't good, but that's because I don't like high temps after my laptop days.
