I am around 50 Celsius except when I'm gaming then it climbs up fast so I'm avoiding that for now.

I did not. I don't have any thermal paste but I ordered a replacement fan and some thermal paste already and I will apply some new stuff once I get it in a couple of days. I just figured the cpu temps would stay the same when the games running whether its minimized or not. The fan on my...

I've posted a couple questions on a similar type of question but I've noticed some strange behavior with my cpu temps. Anyways to make a long story short. I bought a new video card - an EVGA Geforce GTX960 Super Superclocked ACX2.0 card to upgrade my older video card. I installed the new...

Okay, I've ordered some and I'll try that out. If that doesn't seem to help any other suggestions? Also do you only apply the thermal paste to the processor or do you put some on the heat sink as well?

So you think I need to put more thermal paste on the processor?

I haven't applied any just what came on the processor and heatsink when I installed it about two years ago.

I did take the heatsink and fan out a bit ago and cleaned it out pretty good. It was very dusty but I still had the same problem after remounting it. The temp just climbed up to 105 Celsius and it was unplayable and I'm concerned I may be damaging the CPU by letting it get that hot. Also if...

Hey all, I posted another thread after upgrading my graphics card and a user helped me out in there and we discovered my CPU is overheating pretty badly. It's an i5-3350p 3.1ghz. LGA1155 69W. It hovers around 55-60 Celsius just with web browsers open and what not and if I open any game like...

It just goes crazy high to 105 Celsius on the temp with any game then it just becomes unplayable. Do you recommend a new processor at this point or should I just try a new cooler? ANy idea where I can get a cooler that will fit my mobo?

What kind of temp should my CPU be running at if I am just web browsing and what not? It seems to be around 55-60 Celsius right now not playing any games. Just wondering if that's considered high.

Is it possible the CPU can be damaged if the temperatures get too high? I just tried it in World of Warcraft and they reached about 100 Celsius and then the frames dropped really low in that game. Just wondering if it might have sustained damage from getting so hot or if I'm able to fix the...

It's pretty dusty I'm going to try some compressed air and clean it out if I can and see if that helps. It just seems weird I never had that problem until I changed cards.

Ok I found a program. CPU cores are running around 95 Celsius and the GPU temp is 57 Celsius that was right after ending a game of League of Legends where my FPS was dropping to like 3-8 FPS. I can play like 15-20 minutes with fine FPS and then around 15 20 minutes is when I start getting...

I'm guessing you want to know the CPU and GPU temps while I'm playing a game but I checked the CPU and Mobo temps in the bios after a restart and it was between 64-68 Celsius and the mobo was about 31 Celsius. Any programs you can recommend for checking temps?
