Is 43 Degrees celcius at idle Normal

[aesmart1234]

I have a p9x79 ws motherboard, the temperature on the ai suite shows that it is idling at 42 degree c. it the normal

[flibberdipper]

Use something like Real Temp, Core Temp, or HWMonitor, since they tend to give better temperatures.

Yea, that's fine.

As long as your idle temp isn't outrageous, load temperature is the important one.

[Askew]

Shows that what is idling at that temp? I am assuming CPU but could be a number of other things with that software we need to be sure here to give an answer.

[WildTurtle]

What CPU are you using? Clock speed?Volatge?

What are your ambient temperatures like?

What are you using for cooling?

How good is the airflow in your case?

That is his idle temp. 43 degrees. Unless that's somehow good...

[MegaDave91]

What is your ambient temperature?

[LogicalDrm]

CPU, cooler, oc infos if any and ambient. Then we can start to troubleshoot. But for AI Suite (known to show inaccured temps) and possibly stock cooler that is pretty normal.

I Have a 4930k, corsair h110, p9x79 ws, 32gb corsair dominator platinum, 512 samsang 840 pro ssd, seagate 4 tb sshd, wd  green 4tb hardrive corsair hx850 psu, all in a 750d with the stock fans in them.

Ambient temp? 43 is a bit high (not high like dangerous) just higher than average (30-35C)

[Mooshi]

Maybe you should have invested in a proper water cooling set up instead of blowing the extra dosh on Dominator Platinum bling ram and an AIO system. :V

 

What that case, there is more than enough room to do so. 43c idle, even with an AIO system, seems pretty high. If you didn't list your specs, I would have assumed you either lived in Saudi Arabia or you got AMD's ridiculous CPU that has a TDP of 225 watts. Something is either mounted weird or it's way too hot where you live to idle that high. Load temps are more important, but with that H110, you should be more 32c standard or somewhere in that area.

On the 2011 socket that's not a bad idle temp at all ofcourse its influenced by your voltages and ambient temps.

I'm runnin' 36C idle temps with a 360 custom rad on 1.4V..

 

The 2011 cpu's do deserve something more then an AIO though (just my Opinion)

of course they do but something that is not AIO is expensive i'm trying to save for a custom loop but until then my h100I will have to do and handle the overclock on my 4930K
