spammster Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 70°C is overkill for a AMD chip, i think i got my system set to give me a horrible warning sound when the CPU reaches 60°C (which only happens when all 4 Cores are going @ 100% for maybe 2 hours in the summer) my idle temp is around 30° (so slightly above room temp.) def. get that cooling fixed (and check the heatconducting paste if the cooler itself looks to be working correctly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalloutGamer Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 My cpu temperature has been rising all the time, when i installed a new processor, the temp was about 27C on idle, 30C while playing, and about 25C on startup. Now, its 36C on idle, 39C while playing, and about 35C on startup. I use Domino ALC water cooler. I should clean the fan, because my room is full of dust anyway :) And i should replace thermal compound too. I know that 40C isnt much for amd processor, but i still am concerned about it.
