i7 TEMP high

[moepkid]

hey all,

(i7 4790k @ 4.3 autoclocked by my msi motherboard, bios default settings)

I asked it at the beginning if my temps where to high. I have a core temp of max 61 dergrees after playing titanfall on ultra for about two and a half hours. When i play metro redux, it stays after an hour on 62 degrees.
My package temp is 61 degrees.
I'm really worried about my temps being to high. Does anybody know if these are safe temps or not?

I have a 212 evo cooler on it.

thanks

62C on max is a great temperature.You shouldn't worry about it whatsoever.

The temps are totally safe, 72C is the max recommended, anything below that will not give any sort of problems and is completely fine. I hope you've check the CPU usage too, what does it say? If you're above 70% usage while you were gaming at those temps, then those temps are completely alright

That's not too bad seeing you got a lightweight cooler on it. If you want better temps, you're probably going to have to get a NH-14 or H100i

Where are you reading the temps from? Are they core temps or cpu/case/package temps?

The core temps are max 61 degrees, the package temps also after playing for about two hours. Im reading those temps from hwmonitor and realtemp.

I thinks those games demand above 50% because i also have my mediamonkey on and some other programs

Pretty good temps for your cooler. If you can go for a H100i or similar AIO watercooler you would get a bit better especially at the higher end. Also depends on what your ambient temps are to begin with.

Have same setup except for H100i and in games do not go over 50's and in prime95, Aida64 and Intelburn never goes above 63 degrees at 4.4Ghz 100%.

Well my embient temps are a bit hot. It's above 20 degrees for sure so i think 25 or something that way.
So i don't have to be afraid for destroying my cpu???

 

[LukaBoki]

No,not at all.

 

[vMax]

Not at all... you are doing very well with those temps... I went through what your going through and you have nothing to worry about at those temps... under 70 degrees is good all day long.

 

[moepkid]

thanks all i dont have to watch my tempos now every ten minutes. i was real worried because it's my first intel cpu

 

[LukaBoki]

Glad we could help.

Can you give the cpu/case/package temnps from your mobo buios uefi?

My bios only says the cpu temp is 43 degrees and my motherboard 36 degrees. I can say that my ambient temps are somewhat high.

 

[i7Baby]

OK 43C for idle is a bit too warm unless its 35C in the room with the PC.

 

[vMax]

What does Realtemp or Coretemp say in idle?...

Funny can imagine sitting in room in front of PC just in underwear at 35 Degrees...

 

[moepkid]

Idle my temps are around 30 degress, 30-35 and when I use things like software it's about 40 degrees.

And I think.my ambient temps are around 27 degrees, 29

That should be fine... looks good to me..though as a noob could be wrong. i7 Baby should be able to validate

Not underpants but shorts and a T-Shirt at your ambient... here it is 22 degrees

 

[moepkid]

Well after looking.up, my room.temp hits 30 degrees. And seriously its warm in here

 

[MeteorsRaining]

They're all good, 30C ambient is on the higher side so the temps are justified, nothing wrong

Where do you live?

 

[moepkid]

I live I. The Netherlands. Its 20 degrees outside but my house is good isolated so the heat from past hot days are still in my room

 

[vMax]

Wow... who would have thought...Netherlands... really. Excellent insulation and unbelievable efficiency... must build great houses out there...

I just played metro 2033 redux on ultra, 2 hours straight with downloading in the background. All my temps, core and package dont go beyond 66 degrees.

somebody knows if the default msi z97 settings are okay? or do i have to enable powersave features?
