cpu temperature 67-68c under load

[anwarparvez18]

hello guys....while playing ac unity(cpu usage 100% !!!) and bf4 (cpu usage 98%) the temp is like 67-68c is it normal?.....i have stock cooler for cpu..my ambient temp is like 32-33c....
my spec:
core i5 4570 3.2 ghz
ga h81m-s2pv
msi gtx 970 gaming 4g
haf 912 advanced casing
i had gz-f6 atx case before...that time cpu temp was like 80+ and i replaced it with the haf 912

i wouldnt worry about it. I overclock my cpu and it has an AIO cooler and reaches barely over 60c under full load so with your stock cooler i wouldnt worry too much.

How is it staying that cool? Those temps are frozen given your setup.

EDIT: It's clocked lower than the 4670, it makes sense now.

So 67-68c under full load while gaming on ultra is safe? That doesn't feel safe to me. I think my X6 1100T's max temps are 62C. I have my CPU OC'ed to 3.7MHz with stock heatsink and fan, never gets past 56C I think.

According to this post, your cpu should not be going over 72c under load

so what do u suggest i should do.....ambient temp is like 28-33c...

If you're getting around 67-68C while gaming full load, that's already too high with ambient temps like 28-33C....so I would get rid of the stock cooler and get some air or liquid coolings. The H100i of 212+ Evo is something I'm going to have to get. I can't OC my cpu without it.

someone(in other forum said) that i dont need a aftermarket cooler if i'm not going to overclock

The main reason why you're getting a HIGH C of 67-68C is b/c AC Unity is ridiculously demanding of the CPU, as it's a TRUE next-gen game that uses a true next-gen engine, BF4, not so much, but it will still use a great deal as you have seen.

If you want to be safe and not worry about those dangerous temps, since you don't want to run at 67-68C for too long with your CPU (or at least I wouldn't) and you're not CO'ing, I'd get an aftermarket cooler just to keep the CPU down and THEN OC to get that extra push, if need be.

We don't want your CPU burning up now, 😀.

And as iggy684 said with that link he posted, you shouldn't be going over 72C...but that doesn't mean you should be running it that hot all the time, either. You want to keep it as cool as possible at all time to extend it's life and the life of your motherboard.

you r right..when i was playing skyrim at ultra it hovers around 55-58c and with hitman absolution its like 62c ....and they never use more than 85% of the cpu....

Isn't that odd, that Skyrim (which you would think would be a more intense game overall compared to Hitman) runs cooler at ultra, than hitman does? It's crazy, but the way they have it optimized seems to use the CPU more than the GPU, vica versa, . I'd get myself a decent liquid, water or air cooler like we've stated and then you'll be worry free, 😀!

yep i will get a aftermarket cooler ..no more intense gaming until then....i was saving money to buy some case fans....but now i think save up money for the after cooler..
now the only concern is TT smart se 630w psu..which many said poor quality psu..and i bought it like 2 wks ago 🙁

Yeah, save up for an aftermarket cooler directly going on the cpu, not the case fans. Get the fans down the line. Yeah, the 630W is good and all, but not enough wattage since you don't want to sell yourself short. Maybe return it and get a 850W?

dont know if i can return it without valid reasons.....if not i will just sell it 😀 and buy from a good brand with decent wattage...but gtx 970 costed so much money....i dont think i can afford two thing(psu and a after market cooler ) at once any time soon.....so i think i will first go for the cooler..then for the psu..what do you say?or vice versa?

Hmm, yeah, my GTX 970 broke the bank for me, too, haha. I would get the cooler first, since you don't want your CPU running that hot, ever. Try and keep it as cool as can be, that's all you can do, . Anything but the stock heatsink and fan will work, like the 212+ EVO that everyone is suggesting....THEN get the CPU for more wattage down the line,
