Hiya folks. I dont know if Im having an issue or not. I use core temp desktop gadget to track my temps and I find doing benchmark tests that the temp jumps around. I know 62 degrees is the ideal temp under load so when it jumps to 70 and back down sometimes I worry. It nevers stays at the high temp its a split second before it jumps back down. Like right now its holding at 64 degrees. Here is my spec list
ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 AM3+ AMD 760G + SB710 HDMI USB 3.0 uATX AMD Motherboard
AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo)
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 960 2GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0
G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB
ARCTIC Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2 Cpu Cooler
Corsair HX650 Power supply
Windows 7 X64 Home Premium
Cheap 29.00 Rosewill case

So Im wondering am I using the wrong software, is it this case, or can it be the default thermal paste that came already applied to the aftermarket cooler. If its the case I have no problems taking off the side and throwing a clip on fan on the side 😀 Best cooling feature ive ever used XD. Thanks in advance for your replies !!!!
