AMD 7850k Temp

[silver_haste]

Hey my AMD 7850k is running at around 74 degress C (according to cam) im wondering if thats ok.. I have a Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 on it and it goes to that temp under load of games like Loadout and Trove, Mad max does around 72c, around what temp should i start getting worried about it?.. i cant find much info on apu heat so im asking here

Use AMD Overdrive to check your APU thermals. Other monitors tend to be inaccurate. Make sure the thermal margin is above 0 deg C (ideally in double digits) on a full load.

CAM, at least in early builds, was resource heavy and variable with APU thermals between updates (changes of 20-30 deg C). Use it for other things by all means, but not for an APU's thermals.

You recommend anything for the Load test?

AMD Overdrive has a basic CPU load test. I've used it before and gives a fair account for observing thermals (as far as I'm concerned).
