CPU Temps While Gaming

[MrVerceti]

Hi All,

I just built my very first gaming computer. I was just wondering if these temps were safe while gaming.

GPU: 67 degrees Celsius
CPU1: 71 degrees Celsius
CPU2: 72 degrees Celsius
CPU3: 70 degrees Celsius
CPU4: 67 degrees Celsius

All those figures were taken from MSI afterburner in game monitoring

My Specs:
CPU: intel Core i5-4590 (Stock Cooler)
GPU: MSI Gtx 970 4G Gaming
Mobo: MSI z97 PC Mate
Ram: Corsair Vengence 1x8GB 1600 Mhz
PSU: Corsair 600M

Yes, those temperatures are okay on a Haswell CPU.

Nope, you're A-okay. Around 80-90 Celsius you should start worrying. But if you still don't feel comfortable with the current temperatures, you can upgrade your current Stock cooler to something better. They come relatively cheap.

Thanks for the prompt response, Its just that I've been reading stuff online that says anything 70 degrees or above is dangerous. Can you recommend a CPU cooler under 150 CDN?

70+ would be a problem on current AMD CPUs, which are more heat-sensitive than Intel CPUs.
