what temp's are you seeing under load on your CPU

what temp's are you seeing under load on your CPU

without gaming it is now showing minimum 43'c and maximum 44'c. i have checked in open hardware monitor.

under load.

under load.

i have minimize game while playing game and checked cpu temprature. it showing 52.8'c maximum.

Is that whilst it was slowing down?

I suspect thermal throttling.

no it is while running smoothly but i will tell u maximum temparature while it slowing down. what is thermal throttling?

When it gets too hot, it will slow down to manage heat better, on those CPU's can be around 65C I think.

should i apply heatsink on cpu

 

[13thmonkey]

do you not have a heat sink?

 

[gurparkash]

do you not have a heat sink?

no maybe they did not apply while assemble

no maybe they did not apply while assemble

Wait, you have nothing attached to the CPU? In that case it wouldn't even be running.

there's no way that hes not got a HS. maybe no paste, but we don't even know temps at fault condition yet.
