http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/ is a good universal tool for checking temperatures.
As for the Windows Error Checking tool that message means it found more than one "broken" windows files and were only able to fix some of them. You should keep restarting and running the tool again until it has fixed them alll and comes up with no errors. You might need to boot into safemode to fix it all:

GPU seems to be running at around 50c during gameplay. http://i.imgur.com/Q6Ko8PT.jpg This is the best that the game will look, and it only randomly appears this way and lags terribly. Not only FPS, but actual lag.
I have repaired windows with this method 5 times and restarted after each and it continues to give the same message, stating that there are files that could not be repaired. I will try a few more times and if this does not resolve the problem, I will have to wait until tomorrow to remove and reinstall the graphics driver.
Is there anything else I should try before then? Thank you for your assistance so far.
Did you try doing the Windows repair in safe mode?
Also, a quite easy thing to do is the clean boot. Basiclly you make sure all background applications that aren't from Microsoft don't start and try a non Punkbuster enabled server.

I will await your results 🙂 Good luck.
I had trouble getting it into safemode, instructions for Windows 8 were a bit different. Once I got it there, I ran the repair and it gave the same message, stating that it was unable to repair all files. I'll get back to you tomorrow on trying a clean boot.
