So I recently built my PC and my copy of windows hasn't arrived yet so I can only go in the the bios.

I'm kinda new to this stuff so I was wondering if you could let me know if 39c is a normal temp in the bios.

Using i5 4570 with stock cooler

Yes, in the BIOS the cpu runs at full speed.

what is your ambient (room temperature)? ambient makes a world of difference in

CPU/GPU temperatures.

normally, your CPU idle temps would be 5-8° above ambient temperature.

no real way to lower that idle temp other than lowering the ambient or

operating voltage.

Thats not really true. Its same as desktop idle. None of current mobos will run stock cooler at full speed in BIOS, nor does CPU need to be under full use.

I meant the CPU clockspeed, not the fan. Normally when a CPU is idle it downclocks itself, but in the BIOS it runs at the highest frequency.
