Iv'e had problems with very high cpu temps since I built my PC, it was running at 60 degrees celcius at 4-8% load before but I removed the front panel now since this case has no airflow and it runs at about 50 degrees C instead at the same load. Before it could go up to 80-81 degrees while playing games, not very good at gpu temps but it's at 38 degrees C at 0% load and goes no higher than 60 degrees C. I don't know what that says about the fan setup. Does anyone have any ideas why I have these temps and what I can do about it?

This is the specs

Sorry, my bad, I edited it now.

So your current CPU Temp is 60° in idle and you wanna know how or if you can lower it?

Yes basically :)

Since your case is open, there is zero Airflow. Airflow i very important for the Heatsink to work. What you can do, you can use a normal Deskfan and let it blow right ontop the Heatesink. Isnt perfect and will dust your Hardware much faster, but it should get the Temps down. The best Solution would obviously be a new Tower. There are good ones with decent flow for around 50 Bucks if you dont want spend much Money.
