So currently im using a stock intel cooler in my system. Does that cooler add heat inside the case? To the point that it is affecting the temps of the gpu because of the high temp inside the case?

mmhm? stock coolers aren't pointed directly at the gpu so i hardly believe that it would be pushing the gpu temp higher though if you feel that your ambient tempts inside your case are to hot get a few exhaust fans in there and make sure your room is vented.

I wasnt able to measure it exactly, but the exhausted air is so hot that i assumed the temps inside is high.

Do you have your CPU or GPU overclocked?

Yeah i know it's not directly pointed, but it still contributes to the heat inside right? So yeah, maybe i should add a few exhaust fan. I only 1. The top rear exhaust 140mm fan.

any fan would contribute to heat. Cpu gets hot>fan/heatsink dissipates air>hot air goes into case>needs to be exhausted out. I'd also recommend getting a brown and ugly cpu cooler for some overclocking goodness, otherwise that unlocked cpu will go to waste.

What is the temp of the computer? Check with some software or something.

 

You should definitely get a CM Hyper 212 EVO at the least. It will do your build wonders and another fan blowing in fresh, cold air maybe?

Try filling your case up with fans in all the available spots. As long as you have good airflow through the case it will not heat up as much :)

I wasnt able to measure temps exactly, but the exhausted air is so hot. So that's how i figured it out. Also i will be getting an AIO.

You can measure temps with a software installation, like CoreTemp, RealTemp etc etc. An AIO will work too. :D

yea but it will have some ugly brown fans on it, so it balances kinda?

Measurement by hand is most inaccurate way to tell temps. Your body temperature is around 35-37C. Anything with that temp already feels hot. 40-50C is pretty much normal idle/light use temp with stock cooler or non-ocd GPU. Under full load temps should be under 85C for GPU and under 75C for CPU.

 

With some thermal probes I have determinated that area near source of heat (core) is about 10C lower. Intake over HDDs is around 40C depending on your ambient. So exhaust with temps around 45C seems normal to me.

The case was hot as hell too. Especially on the side where the GPU is. After looking at HWMonitor, 70c-80c on the CPU. 80-88c on the GPU.

Ok, then you should worry and see if you can improve cases general airflow.
