[SOLVED] Chipset Heatsink 50 degrees

[Bhathiya]

My Asus Prime H510-A chipset heatsink is always between 49 to 50 degrees Celsius. Is it normal?

Yes it's normal, the presence of a heat-sink tells us that it can be very hot.

Do you have a front case fan?

Hi Ivt,

Yes i have 3, 120mm case fans. Two on top of the casing facing up and one behind the casins.

Thanks

All of your fans seem to be exhaust fans.

That would be ideal if you have a 12cm intake fan at the front of the case for better airflow.

Thanks i will consider doing that, in that case i will have to change the casing since it doesnt support any front casing fans. The temperature marked the same values even when i had the casing open. Was worried if the Motherboard was faulty. Are the temperatures of the Asus Prime B560 motherboard similar?

Leaving the case open doesn't help much without an airflow.

Maybe your case is designed that way and it has been tested by the manufacturer.

For the time being, you should monitor the chipset's temperature, I would leave it as is if the temperature stays below 55°C.

Thank you, will keep an eye on it

Quite normal, should not worry about it.
