hello,
I have an FX-4170 processor. I installed a new Video card and was putting it through the nvidia testing software that came with it, and a warning came up from my AMD software saying my CPU temp had reached 65*C. I stopped the test and my CPU temp went back down to 40*C. Are these normal temps? How hot is too hot? I have the stock cooler that came with the processor, All fans are working, and the case is well ventilated. The AMD software showed the MB at 28*C and never really moved much there, but kinda worried me when the temp on the CPU went to 65*C, and in a relatively short time (<5 min). Any suggestions?
