I'm just scared to update the bios, all I have to do is download the file to a usb then flash it to the computer in the bios right

Look at this one 4895 as max now, and havent quite updated the bios yet.

Ok, I was thinking about just getting the artic 34 esports dual fan cooler for like 38 bucks, but I'm concerned if it will fit in this case. I think it would help alot with keeping the cpu way cooler

My gpu fans are sucking in air through the heatsinks correct ? It's not blowing the hot air out towards the bottom right ?

I never thought of that, never heard of anyone ever doing that to be honest lol, you think it really would help ?

Just in the sides and to get air theres an opening on the bottom but there isnt a filter , I'm gonna have to dust it out alot probably

Yeah, I figured that gpu was keeping my cpu hotter. But here's a pic it only allows 2 front intake and they aren't positioned to blow on the cpu which is probably why it doesnt get cool.

I bought this computer off my buddy and he ordered it from xidax , it's the x-2 tempered glass , I have the b350m pro vdh mobo, asus strix 980ti 3 fan. And the intake and exhaust fans are hd120 corsair fans, and 16gb 3000mhz corsair vengence ram.

Ok cool it's at 4228mhz as its highest now. but do the temps and everything look fine ? I have a stock cooler and a case with 2 intake and 1 exhaust. I play apex legends at 144fps that's what makes the cpu hit 70c

Is this normal for my max clock speed to be at 4178mhz not overclocked ?

Why does HWmonitor say my max clock speed for my cpu for each core is 4178mhz. Its stock and not overclocked , it shouldnt be that high should it.

Ok I will give that a try, all my pc buddies said not to update my bios unless I absolutely have too. Mine bios has not been update for at least a year

Ok as long as they are safe I'm happy , I game alot like 4 hours a day or more usually after I get off work. Just wanted to make sure it was okay to run the temps at that for hours. I ran heaven bench mark when I first got the pc and my gpu reached 75c but that was before I installed the new fans and there was only 1 front fan instead of 2. My cpu idle temp is good though like 45c .

No it had a 1060 3gb dual fan. I just dont like how my gpu stays in the 60s and my cpu is higher. On my intel system my 1060 was at 82c all the time cause I tryed to play everything at 120 or 144 fps , but now it's just backwards on my new system. I thought cpu temps usually were lower than gpu temps. Just from past experience. This is only my 2nd pc.

See I had a prebuilt omen 870-224 before with only one exhaust fan and it had an i5 7400 and temps never reached 60c on anything i played with it. But i get a computer with 2 more fans and my temps are worse i just dont understand lol
