Hi all,
Normally my CPU core temps are low. All of them hovers around 30 degree.

But the package temp is always around 40-45 degree. Which makes my fan just going up and down. I could make the fan stay at certain level below 50 degree, but is that a normal temperature for 6 cores?

Thanks
 
Solution
Normal temps for your cooler, you're alright.
Generally, it shouldn't go much over 70 under load. No sense in setting a more aggressive fan profile.
Yes, depending on your environmental temps and case airflow, very much normal.
I fyou are bothered by the noise, look into a ggod air cooler like the Cryorig H7(btw, one would think it obvious to specify the cooler used when asking such questions, no?)
 


I am using NZXT x61 Kraken right now. It is overclocked to 4.2 GHZ but the voltage is adaptive. And the case is Be Quiet Silent Base 800
