Hi, so my gpu is cooled very good, highes I ever got is 66 degrees in a heavy game after an hour or more of gaming. So that's nice (I think anyways...)


But my cpu I'm a bit worried about, in gaming it reached in 65, I'm okay with that.... but in my homescreen, while downloading it sometimes hits the 50 degrees, and drops to the 30's al the way up to in the 40's. Is this something I should be concerned about? I am downloading GTA V now and have got steam and chrome open and discord in the background. But isn't it a bit high for downloading an app and just browsing the web while making a call? Or am I just overreacting? I am using a stock cooler and have no money for an upgrade.

Oh god almost forgot to mention, it's the i5 6500 processor.

Also I cleaned my pc yesterday, wiped out some dust. I got the pc for a little less than a week now.
I am quite new to PC's so, please let me know whether this is bad, good or normal.

Thanks 😀


*EDIT* After downloading gta and finishing my call, with steam and chrome open, it is hovering between 32 and 38. Right now while writing mainly between 32 and 36

For those intrested, I'll upload some more temps tonight, GTA V temps and maybe, just maybe bo3 temps
