hi.so i installed yesterday my new gpu and my new psu.after that i noticed that the cpu temp is anusually high.in idle is between 45 and 50 and after playing a game at 100 percent it was at 73 degrees celsius.before installing the new items the temps were circa 5 degrees lower.is that a bad temperature.i'm thinking maeby the psu cables are disrupting the air flow but i can;t do anything else about that.ideas???my cpu is quad core q8300 at 2,5 gh
