is my cpu overheating? and why?
Hi
I have just setup my new build My CPU seems to be 60 to 80 celcius? I have installed the cpu and heatsink and fan, the fan is going at 3400rpm when i boot up and go to bios it says cpu at 72 celcius , it then comes down to 60, same with the pc probe in windows. after playing a game for 5 mins it is at 82 celcius. is this dangerous for my cpu? the heatsink had paste on, i removed the plastic film and placed it on the cpu and pushed the pins down correctly. cpu p4 3.0 ht http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=260260 cooler p4 extreme 3.4 http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=246320 |
