Hello

 

I have a i7 4790k, MSI Gaming 7 Z97 mb, 16 gb 2133 DDR3 ram, and a GTX 980ti. I have a Enermax iVektor case with two front 120mm fans pulling air in, a rear 120mm fan pushing air out, a AIO liquid cooler (Lepa) with 2 120mm fans mounted on the bottom of the radiator pushing air out of the case thru the radiator. I have room in the case for a bottom mounted fan.

 

I have used the air conditioner all summer and the temps in my case have stayed around 33-35 degrees Celsius with my old GTX660 gpu I had.

 

I bought a 980ti and put it in the pc, and stopped using the ac as much, getting cooler.   I noticed my temps are hitting 45-50 degrees Celsius. The aio cooler has the fan curves set for it.

 

Today I left off the ac and themps went up to 52 degrees Celsius. My room temp is about 75-80 degree with little high humidity. I noticed the 980ti puts out lots of heat too.

 

I turned on the ac and the temps are back down to 37 degrees Celsius.

 

Is this normal?  Or is my case getting too hot or do I need a better AIO, or do I need to add a bottom mounted fan?

If your room is hot, it's normal.

Looks normal.

If you are really worried run some stress test and see what your temps get like.

CPU: Anything over 80 is getting kindda hit but when you start getting close to 90 stop stress testing

GPU: can run a little hotter then CPU. 90 should probably be the limit also though.

In Celsius.

I have a air cooler and my i5 gets 33 degrees without OC on idle.

so 52 idle is fine, if you are still worried get some better fans, something with more CFM on them.

Forgot to add that all four of my cores are overclocked to 4.5ghz

 

So than I am fine then?  Just wanted to check and see if the temps are ok.

I meant Fahrenheit for the room temp 

Why would you mix the two? It is worse enough that fahrenheit is still around, now I can't even figure out the temperature difference between the components and the room, or if it is even hot in your room.

Well, its called laziness, didn't feel like converting the temps.

 

I live in Japan so I use the two between each other.

im pretty sure if you are in a Room with a 75-80C Temp you'll die

 

Well lads, this bit of a journey was fun, not going to reveal where I am from but I want to say thank you to everyone for lending a helping hand here.    Yes 75-80C Temp and your head just may melt away.
