strange CPU temperatures

[CaptainFluffyBear]

So, a month ago I bought a liquid CPU cooler, the H55 closed loop cooler for my AMD FX 6300 (not overclocked) At first, I had really nice temperatures of 44 degrees max after sessions of gaming (of like, 2 hours) after a month, it has gon up to 51 degrees max. Those are not hot temperatures but I don't know why it has gon up and will it continue to go up?
I used the pre applied thermal paste, no system changes where made, but the temperature might have gon up a little bit.
Thanks for reading.

I wouldn't worry those are well below thermal limits. Lots of things affect temp day to day.

Have your idle temps changed from what they were before? Do you know if any fan speed profiles have changed? is it a lot warmer in the room now ambient speaking versus when you first installed it? example, a month ago we had days in the 20's-30F's now its 50-70F here

The idle temps did not change, fan speed did not change and I live in Belgium, the temperatures around here aren't really that extreme.

I would keep an eye on it, do you know if maybe the game was optimized by software and running everything a little harder? Your temps are fine. I would imagine its nothing to worry about especially because you are keeping an eye on them

I'll do that, thanks for helping!

No problem! Let us know if anything changes Fluffy!

Make sure the radiator is clean, dust/smoke/pet hair can clog the fins and reduce the rad's ability to shed heat.
