I want to know what is safe temp for this cpu cause if i play bf 4 it gets up to 60celcius is that normal for that game and the cpu,My cpu cooler is coolermaster 212x.I have two fans ontop exausting air but the one that is infront of the the cpu is sucking the cold air out and not warm air cant i switch so it as intake infront of the cpu.?
 


This is incorrect. According to official specs, this CPU has a thermal limit at 62C. OP, you need to keep the CPU below 55C at all times. Clean the heatsink and reapply thermal paste or get a better CPU cooler, this is too hot. You can also try setting the lower voltage in BIOS, some motherboards tend to give too much voltage on "auto" settings.

pretty bs i might say i even been able to keep a fx stable with a overclock for 2 hours on 70c i know it was bad but i stressed it to know if it was possiable to keep it stable so im sure 60c isnt as bad as you think
