Hi,

I've just finished my first build, now everything's all good , however i am slightly concerned at how high the CPU temperature gets under full load.

I get around 70 to 80 degrees full load is this fine or am I frying the thing?

Specs:
Corsair 300r Carbide
MSI Z87-G45
I5-4670K (stock cooler)
G Skill Ripjaws 2 x 4GB's
XFX 650w XXX edition
MSI GTX 760 2GB

Thank you for any help you can provide !

Excellent!!! Thank you for the reply! I was just a bit concerned when I saw the temperature had shot up to 80 degrees! Do you know the maximum for our CPU's, or what it shouldn't go up too??
 


You're Welcome :)
CPU shouldn't go higher than 90C anything higher is not so good, the limit is 100C

Yea 100c is the max pretty sure cpu throttles at 95c , i get the same temps on my non oc 4670 under load with a stock cooler .

From what ive been reading for the last couple of days seems this is the normal temps for a haswell ...

Brill, now that I know a lot of people have the same temperature, I feel better for it, with it being my first build i was just a bit worried. Thanks for the input! :)
