i see he has liquid cooling so chances are the processor stays plently cool. He could be using a cheap low rpm hdd. 5400 is really crappy. Im using a 7200 rpm atm but want to get a 10000 rpm and a ssd for my OS. his Graphics card could be over heating which would reduce frame-rate. Also his psu could be starting to die. Something i see alot. Even the expensive ones like his die. I had a corsair tx 750 die with in 4 months. They replaced it of course but it still died. I noticed frame rates going down about two weeks before it died and then my pc would redscreen wich normally means not enough power or graphic card issues. im not sure what the max operable temps are on a 980 but i have had my hd 7970 up to 75c during a furmark benchmark .
