Whenever I play a game my CPU temps get really really hot super fast for some reason.. 80-90c hot!
The highest I've seen it go is 90 on 1 core and 85-ish on the other cores (it would have kept going up tho) and I was only playing a game for about 10 minutes on max settings!
SPECS:
Nvidia GTX 780 6GB
Intel Core I7 4790K
16gb ddr3 ram
Gigabyte Z97-HD3 mobo
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
Zalman Z11 Plus case
PC is brand new so there's no dust. I'm using stock CPU and case fans with pre-applied thermal paste on the stock intel core i7 4790k fan. The CPU is at 4.00GHz and I haven't overclocked it.
Fans are all on and running. (there's about 6 stock fans in the Zalman Z11 plus case ranging from a small fan on each case door,2 in the center of the PC blowing in/out air, and a bigger fan (I think it's bigger) at the front,etc. The room is about normal temperature. The fans go really fast when the temps get high. GPU goes to about 60c,I'm guessing because of all the hot air the CPU is producing.
Can anyone tell me why? I just bought a 1500 euro PC and can't play any games because I'm afraid my PC will burst up into flames! (the games run fine tho..my prob is the heat)
Thanks in advance!
P.S. I use CPUID monitor to check my temps,although I've tried RealTemp
