seems fine but I'm seeing 80c as the cutoff point for most people I'm just curious if a failsafe failed on my cpu or something lol

The Tj Max (throttle) temperature for the Ivy Bridge CPUs is about 105C. I wouldn't call 95C all right, perhaps spend some money in a cheap but way better than stock after market CPU cooler? The Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO is just $30,- and can reduce temps by 20C with ease.
