A8 7600 temps (and DeepCool Gammaxx 200)

[berzelius]

As with Trucker2's suggestion, i bought last week an A8 7600 and used the included stock cooler + thermal compound. installation was well for my first build, but upon checking my temps using HWmonitor and Speccy my idle temps are at about 55 Celsius minimum, and it reaches 93 Celsius at load. Are there any problems with the software i am using? or should i go ahead and by an aftermarket cooler? Is the gammaxx 200/300 good choice for my problem? They are the cheapest tower type coolers available here. Thanks again.

Have you checked the cpu temp in the bios? If I use mine and restart it shows around 37. At 93 I don't think the cpu would even work. I have not used either hw monitor or Speccy. Just the bios. Hope this helps.

almost same reading with bios at around 49 to 60.
