Hey guys just a quick check to see whether I should be concerned with the temperatures I am seeing or not.

Set-up

Case - NZXT H440 (3 Fans front (Intake), 1 above 3 at front (intake), Exhaust fan at back of case along with another exhaust fan above) Attached Airflow pic with arrows not my pc but good example.
CPU - I7 4770k Haswell (Stock Settings)
Cooler - Hyper 212 Evo (Turbo Mode)
GPU - R9 290x Windforce OC
Mobo - Maximus gene vi (I switched out from a smaller case not long ago, not got round to getting bigger mobo)

Temps with minimum running - 37-42c
Intel Extreme Tunming Utility Stress Test 60-75c
Gaming - This can be all over the place depending on game usually 60-80c ( never passing 85c in worst situations)

Ambient Temp - I don't have a way of getting room tempreature sadly but outside it is 20c I would say the room feels similar if not slightly warmer.

Should I be concerned with these temps at all?

I have tried a few suggestions to test temperatures such as removing side panel which can make about a 2c diffrence.

I also realise depending on who you ask the answers can vary so have asked on here and another forum just to see general consensus.

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated once again thank you.

I don't get all these threads freaking out about temperatures under 80C unless it is to brag for some reason.

The reason they come up so much is there never seems to be a given straight line of what's good and what's not, you get people saying things like "OMG 30c idle way to high", or "80c your cpu is going to cause a meltdown". So to save time and hassle i much prefer to just ask straight up rather than look at the hell hole of possible answers.

 

 

its good

Honestly even 80C is fine, the TJmax on a 4770k is like 101C.
