My CPU HEATS too much when GAMING but not when STRESS TESTING.

[mikeveris]

Hi,

So, I built a new complete a week ago, and the PC's performance is just amazing, the only problem I am having is when I am gaming the CPU, heats a lot (80-85c max), but when I stress test my CPU the maximum temperatures are 50-60c. I have a Cooler Master MasterLiquid Pro 240, I used to have a Budget Cooler(CM TX3i), and I fought he was the problem, but it wasn't (even though the temps got better when I upgraded), can the problem be my Mobo or the Voltages, CPU IS NOT OVERCLOCKED!

PLEASE HELP!

Try to stress test with Prime95 small FFT test. If you get higher temps in gaming than stress testing, you are not stress testing correctly.
