Hi guys,
I've been doing some testing and monitoring, and have noticed that my CPU temps seem (to me) quite high. These are some stats:
Idle (just windows running and no programs): 60-70 C (140-158F)
Few programs and chrome running: 80-90C (176-194F)
Game running: 100-105C (212-221F)
My build is:
i5 3570k (not overclocked) + fan
GTX 780 (non ti)
450W corsair PSU
2x 4GB DDR3 ram
P8Z77-V LX Z77 motherboard
2x seagate 7200RPM HDDs
Extra case fan
I did do a hoover of the inside gently (there wasn't a lot of crap in there anyway) but that didn't seem to do a lot. I also made sure the CPU was seated correctly, and that seems to be fine. Are these temps actually ok, or do they indicate an issue?
Cheers!
