CPU Temperature Issues

[Rohit Jackdaw]

I have an AMD FX 8320 at 4.2 Ghz on stock voltage. Its current temp at P95 is 69 - 72C. I have a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Cooler with two fans and a Cooler Master Elite 431 Plus Cabinet. Is this temp real high ? I use an AS5 TIM. Any suggestions or help ? Thanks.

I only worry past 90 on stress tests

Prime95 and you get 69C? Tha fack. Your chip is really cold.

Sure ? Its an 8320.

On other tests and intensive games its around 68C too.

69 - 72C.

69 - 72C.

That's pretty good, especially for a 212.

For a 212 it might be good but as far as the life of my CPU is concerned, is it good ?

I wouldn't be concerned until it hits 80C. Even then it won't kill the chip that much faster.

Ok then. I was worried as some said it might damage it but I also saw in AMD site that the max for this cpu is 62C though. I want to OC it to 4.4 Ghz but is worried about temps.

69 is great.

I mean, a great temperature for your CPU.
