Hello everyone, im 24 from Croatia and this is my first post on the forum.
My build is this:
CPU - AMD FX-6300 overclocked to 4.2GHz on 1.3V
Cooling - Scythe Mugen 4 PCGH edition (the one with two fans in push-pull configuration)
Mobo - Asrock 970 extreme3 r2.0
RAM - Hyperx Fury DDR3 @1866 2*8GB
GPU - Gainward Geforce GTX 1050Ti @ default clock
HDD - WD Blue 1TB @7200rpm
PSU - OCZ SXS 400W
Case - Antec GX500 with 3 exhaust fans and 1 intake fan
NB and HT clocks are left stock.

I am wondering if these temperatures on screenshots are normal considering the size and performance of the cooler?

In prime95 Small FFT stress test the temperature rises to 69 Celsius (156 Fahrenheit) and stays there.
Ambient temperature right now is about 28-30 Celsius (82-86 Fahrenheit).
Thank you for your help :)

Use amd overdrive. and go by thermal margin. with prime 95 running make sure your thermal margin is 10c or higher. 0c is max die temp/throttling start...negative value is overheating.

amd overdrive is the only right way to see how hot your die temp is. all other software tends reads from a temp sensor under the socket and is not highly accurate.

Thank you for a quick response.
This screenshot is 15 minutes into prime95 Small FFT. Judging by your response I'd say these are quite good results?
