So I've been playing Skyrim recently and even though it doesn't put too much strain on my computer the temps on this game seem to skyrocket. I've been monitoring the temps inside while gaming and have found my motherboard to get up to 63C as opposed to around 38C idle. I have the Asus M4N98TD Evo and am at a loss as to if I should be concerned. I have fans at every possible location for my case but with my Coolermaster Hyper 212+ the air doesn't exactly blow in the MB fins. Comments?
