My i5 3450 hitting 80c to 85c during gaming or benchmark, changed thermal paste(i put right amount, not too much or little) and cooler, even i use AIO water cooler also the same result, changed motherboard and PSU, i tested in open area (without case) also the same result, is my CPU cooked?

honestly i wouldnt be too bothered, it's on the high side but nothing major

if it's around 80c with cinebench, it's probably around 70-80 while gaming, max

which aio, to be specific?

 

did u try dusting stuffs? is your ambient hot like an oven? there are many reasons for your cpu to have high temps

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

85 is well within acceptable bounds, any issues?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad
