a6-5400k high temperature

[jayar]

why my AMD a6 5400k is having a high temp, I'm using Hwmonitor to check it and the Min of my cpu temp is 50c and the max is 90c, 50~65c on Idle, 55~90c in gaming, I turn my CPU fan to full speed and it reduce 2c only, I change my thermal paste, I update Bios and apps, but nothing change just the 2c, what should I do now?

[S4STINDUBZ]

you've updated the bios?

 

[jayar]

yes I already Update the Bios and the apps that I used to Monitor the temp.

 

[S4STINDUBZ]

yes I already Update the Bios and the apps that I used to Monitor the temp.

what are you doing on your pc? just in general? realistically this APU should be >70c

 

[jayar]

Idle=50~58c, Internet 55~67, Gaming,60~88.....thats all I do

 

[S4STINDUBZ]

ah so it seems fine until you start gaming.... maybe calm it down on the games a bit (settings wise as well) or another option would be to buy an after market heat sink

 

[jayar]

so this is normal for now?, I'm really planing to change my Heatsink, the Cooler Master Hyper T2,

 

[S4STINDUBZ]

well yes its normal for you because its not at all a gaming CPU...
