Specs in Sig.

 

My GPU and processor is slightly worrying me. My GPU idles at around 49oC but yet when im only watching a youtube video it goes from 3% - 15% usage. 

 

Now my processor. It seems to run at around 40oC at idle but is usually always using between 3-25% near enough the same as my GPU. 

 

Using a 212 Cooler at the moment as my H100i pump was DOA so im waiting for a replacement for that so temps on CPU shouldnt be that bothering when thats installed.

 

However the rest i feel should be less. Or am i worrying over nothing?

 

Max my processor has ever reached was 76oC whilst playing CS:GO and Project Cars.

No idea. I live in the UK so im guessing around 28oC or something most days. Weather is getting warmer but its not that warm outside yet to it effect the PC.

More importantly, what are LOAD temps? Idle temps mean next to nothing.

I suppose it's all about your room temps. My 290x Lightning idles at around 27-32c. And goes up to 38c when watching things like YouTube. My load temps are up to 60c while gaming. With a max temp while stress testing or benchmarking being 72c.

 

As stated above, I'd assume your case does not have very good airflow?

 

P.S. I love the orange and black case you have.
