So a few weeks back i found out i had voltage/heat problems with my old motherboard, it also couldn't run my cpu very well (the pc came from a Amazon shop so they downgraded a lot of parts) I have replaced over the year , the Power Supply, i now have the corsair H55 Water cooler, i got a new spacious case and a Fatality 970 Motherboard, i have stress tested for around an hour and did not get any errors come up https://gyazo.com/c6601094d339c4223b3995e38f97e404 My cpu temperatures im told is kinda okay because the FX-8350 is known for running hot, Im more concerned on the Temperature#1 for the motherboard, could this be false information? if not i may need to change some more things. If anyone with this kind of experience could help me out i would be very happy

Thanks in advance and have a good rest of your Christmas!
 
For that cpu that tempature is not normal under normal load you should be at 35c-45c max load 45c-68c.
What type of cpu grease are you using for the corsair watercooler ?
If your using supplied thermal grease from corsair don't use it also check this out here:

Use Artic MX-4 or use deepcool z5 for your cpu, with that combined with corsair your tempature will be much more better.
 
Okay, during a stability test i hit a solid 50 (cpu), thats alot better, i couldnt find motherboard temps anywhere, can i be sure that no damage will happen to it? or is there a way to get solid temp results for that to?
I Have an GTX760 OC MSI in that mobo if that makes it run hotter for some reason?
 
I don't know how you are over looking this feature, but look for a litle tab that says HW monitor in your uefi bios screen.

Yes I know the temps look scary in this picture to what you saw earlier, look at the first second and third cores.
Those are normal the 4th cores and downwards go higher in temps but really don't do much harm if any.
If your still unsure use cpu-z to check it, I've use it for years and trouble shooting at another forum I no longer go to.

If the temps match whats in this bios than its spot on, however if its different, the only problem with that.
The current revision of the bios isn't giving out accurate information, call asrock or email them to be sure of that and let the help you.

Heres a tip for you, open cpu-z open up windows task manager, click on the performance tab.
Load a game up from steam get a drink and watch your cpu temps throttle up while gaming and throttle back down when you leave.
Atleast that way you'll have a better understanding of your cpu temps during the day week and throughout the year.
