Hey guys I need a quick question for the people who are masters at CPUS.

I got AMD FX 8350 couple of days ago, I did not get a chance to to play games for too long but when i do game I notice my core clocks well 2 of them atlist out of 8 cores get over 80 or around degrees, so I did a cpu stress test, and 2 of my 8 cores go over 80 like 83 and the others around 60. Just want to know is it dangers? should I plan things for my cooler. I did not had any overheats problems yet just worried about the temps, please let me know... my cpu cooler is cooler master n520.
 
Solution
That's core temps. But what's your CPU/Package/case temp = per bios or your mobo uefi sotware?

If its 40C max on idle and 60C gaming then you're fine.


well yeah by looking at OpenHardwareMonitor program, my cores are 60 or under except 2 of my cores they go over 80 one of them reached 87 on stress test. with which program I can check the package test?

 


Nwm no need for that I just found my motherboard cd installed it and the cpu temp was just like you said 35 idle 55 when i was stressing it. Thanks for the help
