Hi everyone,

 

I installed CPUID HWMonitor and these are the temperatures shown in the first few minutes.(see the highlighted) The CPU Temps are in the high 60s and this is without any gaming or heavy load(browsing the web at the moment of capture). My GPU is at 42C. Just wondering if this is normal temps for a i5 8400.

 

My Specs are,

i5 8400 with stock Intel cooler

Asus Prime Z370-A Mobo

Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming

16GB RAM

 

Noob here doing system testing for the first time :D :D so any help will be much appreciated.

 

Thanks.

mmm, thinks you got something running in the background. if at c-state, the voltage would be .80 ish with lower thermals.

idle at 1.152 is obnoxiously high. check power options in control panel.

what is the ambient temperature (room temperature)?

Yeah, that about matches up with intel stock.

Thank you for the quick reply.

 

I'm thinking of running Rise of Tomb Raider at 2k resolution on Very High settings while HWMonitor running in the background. Will that be a good way to stress the system and get some temp readings under load? I don't want to download big benchmarking tools because I won't be checking my system stats frequently and I'm planning to replace the stock cooler tomorrow so just need some numbers to compare.

I can't exact about the room temperature but I would say it's in the high twenties. It's warm and I'm not wearing a shirt. :D

 

Temps just before posting this is attached. Now it's in the mid 50s
