i7 4790k Temps

[iNCEPTiON]

Hej

 

recently i showed off my rig here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/324881-console-peasant-build/#entry4412605

So now i upgraded to an i7 4790k, i installed it correctly and started to play Battlefield 4 i noticed  that while playing the temps go

up to 80c but im idling at 30-40c.

 

So my question is are those temps normal? I didnt overlock the cpu its running at stock 4.0Ghz.

You can find my cpu cooler here: http://www.scythe-eu.com/en/products/cpu-cooler/mugen-4.html

 

thanks for your help!

That seems very normal.

r9 290's are causing case temps to rise alot, but those temps seem more in line with a stock intel cooler. did you put the right amount of thermal compound on and clean off the old? also is the cooler correctly installed?

[iNCEPTiON]

i was just wondering because with my i5 4460 i got 50-60 while playing

 

The Cooler is installed correctly,  the thermal paste looks like a rice like a little point

Battlefield 4 does take advantage of CPU hyper-threading though, so that may heat it up.

temps are ok dont worry if its 80c.it depends on room temp,case airflow,etc....You can check if cooler sit well on a cpu or maybe if you applied too much thermal compund,or too little if you builded pc yourself.

hope i helped(and that you understood me(not a native english speaker)).

 

 

edit:my bad did not see the config.nevermind the airflow

Your GPU temps won't affect your CPU temps.

dual 290's will up the case temp alot, and that can cause the whole PC to run hotter

my 4790k with a 290x at 4.8ghz gets to 85c with the fans on full if its at full load

Check what voltages are you running on when it gets hot. It really shouldn't be that high.
