Hi, I've been trying to figure out what's been causing my random blue screens (have separate thread about that), and one thing I noticed when I check my temps is that my (3 year old) PSU has the highest temps of all my parts.

GPU: GTX 970 ranges from 31-36°C Idle and web browsing (Watercooled and OCed)
CPU: i7 2700K ranges from 32-38°C Idle and web browsing (Watercooled and OCed)

PSU: CoolerMaster Silent Pro 850W 80Plus Bronze ranges from 46-50°C

 

Granted it is the only component not watercooled, I may just be paranoid here.

 

Thoughts?

Just wondering, how do you check your PSU temps?

It's probably your overclock. Just up the voltage a bit because you dont need to worry about temps it looks like. Just because P95 or whatever doesn't make your computer bsod doesn't mean you have a completely stable overclock. I've had a "stable" overclock and a crash in a game of league of legends.

I use HWMonitor to check temps. I read somewhere that AUXTIN refers to the PSU temps.

I'm pretty sure my OCs arent what are causing the BSODs because I still get the BSODs when I take off all the OCs.
