Macbook Pro Retina Late 2013 CPU temperature issues while gaming (99 celsius) Is this normal ?

I was considering building myself a gaming rig before I bought it haha The reason I'm asking is because I've looked through the forums and it seems that some people are able to play the same games if not more with decent temps and great framerate. I was worried that maybe my macbook is defective in that area ? Thanks for replying so quickly!

Right, everything with a grain of salt of course! Also, my fans do kick in very loud when I am gaming in bootcamp so I know they're working haha I bought my macbook from bestbuy but the 14 day return policy is of course done. Would you recommend that I call apple or take it in at this point? I am worried I'll call them and they'll tell me there is nothing they can do because at this point a refund or replacement **** even a check up would be nice! haha Thank you!

Yeah I'm just very concerned I'm damaging it so I'll test it out on the mac osx side and see if the temps are the same. I'll take it in and have it checked out. Hopefully they let me have a refund or fix the problem. Thank you very much! I wanted a pc desktop but i thought maybe the mac could handle it so that it could be my "all in one " . I guess I was wrong haha

UPDATE:

I've inserted my mac cpu temps and they keep peaking in the 90's and peaked at 99 after a couple minutes of L4D2 on med settings. Any further input is appreciated.

UPDATE: I took my macbook pro to the geek squad at best buy and the tech guy their confirmed that yes, my macbook is in fact running much too hot for what I was doing. He perfomed a diagnostic test and determined that it was in fact defective. He told me they could ship to apple for me to fix but that more than likely they would need to scrap mine due to the fact that it might be too expensive to fix and be of a refurbishable quality. This is my first laptop and it's just my luck I suppose. Shame, I really liked this laptop. I decided to hold on to the laptop and call apple in hopes of seeing my other options. Will update with results.

Yeah I called apple support and he had me run a couple things to fix it but to no avail. I'm gonna take it directly to apple. How long did you have your laptop before you took it back ? Was it within the 15 day return policy?

Ive had mine for a month but these temps are completely unnacceptable .. I record music as well and the temps go over 100 celsius! Thanks for your help im gonna try and get a refund

So I just got back from the apple store and wow, what rude service. The guy basically shrugged when I told him "Well, I guess Im stuck with it huh?" after he told me there was no way I could get a refund. He performed a test and told me everything was fine and told me in a very arrogant manner that the test isn't showing the results I told them about as if I was lying....***? He said they can send it away for a few weeks but I don't have any other computer and I just bought this one for school so I can't afford to have it gone for that long. He told me "doesn't your school have a computer lab"? Seriously, how can someone at Apple be this rude? I told him they do but its closed at 7 and I dont live on campus. How could a computer lab replace a personal computer? He basically kept shrugging rudely anytime I tried to find a solution. He didn't even reply with a single word. When I told him I called the call center and they told me that yes it is much too hot and to take it to the store after doing a fix he just chuckled and rolled his eyes. Really? I spent 1500 dollars on this computer to not even be able to do basic things on it without it overheating and the service is this bad? Well, looks like I won't ever be buying an apple product again even though before this experience I was a huge fan of all their products. I know one customer doesnt make a difference to them but come on...looks like I'm stuck with it and apple couldnt give one care. If having your hands uncomfortably hot after a small amount of time is acceptable then it looks like I'll never be buying another laptop from them. Its a shame I really liked it at first.

Yeah it really is a big loss for me. Thanks for the info though man. Lets just hope it doesnt overheat.
