If stress testing the hardware doesn't cause the computer to reboot, it has to be a problem with the game.

Wrong! Stress tests usually only stress 1 or 2 pieces of hardware at a time, not the entire computer as a whole. 7d2d stresses everything all at once. Don't be so quick to blame a game that has been around for 10+ years, especially when you're the only one having this issue right now.

 

GPU should never reach 95 degrees... ever. CPU reaching that temp, while claimed to be normal according to AMD, is still stupid and not ideal for reliability reasons which is why there's so much hate for that LGA CPU right now. Also, 95C is pretty much the thermal throttle limit, so while it may seem normal (again, according to AMD), you don't even know if it's performing like it should.

 

In any case, what computer tower are you using, because it's pretty obvious you're not getting enough airflow for that GPU (and probably CPU as well). With that kind of heat, who knows what damage and instabilities you could be dealing with. Keep in mind that ram, ssd, motherboard chipsets, motherboard power distributers, etc all don't have sensors to let you know they're hot. So if all the things that do have sensors are telling you everything is hot... then odds are, other things inside the case are really warm or hot too.
