Motherboard overheating much!

[rubenlyngskildedk]

Hey. I've just recently discovered that my motherboard is getting really hot, (122 degrees celsius) i assume it's very hot. It usually get this high when im stressing it in a high-detail game. My CPU tho is just fine around the 60-65 degrees which i assume is alright in a high-end game. Im not sure tho what causes my motherboard being that hot. Any ideas what i should do?

Motherboard: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. B85M-G


Im using Speccy and HW monitor to check the temps.


EDIT: I just played Just Cause 3 which caused speccy to show it was 126 degrees. i then close just cause and instant it drops to 1 degree...

I highly doubt those temperatures are correct, especially if it drops that fast and that low after closing a game. Your temperature monitor is probably just terrible. I wouldn't worry about it.

Yeah, i think so. I didnt even close the game, i just alt + tab to get to the desktop and it returned to 1-2 degrees xD
