I'm actually kind of scared that my computer is too cold... help, if this is a safe temperature let me know please. (sorry if this is a noob question), its like low-mid 20c

 

Is this idling with a watercooler or a really good aircooler?


EDIT: maybe you just got very lucky in the silicon lottery and your CPU is a good overclocker?

Lol this is a hyper t4 (20$ cooler) not even a hyper 212 xD but my fans are running 4 exhausts and 1 intake

Just be aware that negative airflow (aka more exhaust than intake) means lower temperatures but you'll also have to deal with much more dust accumulation inside the case than with positive airflow.

Lol meant what it means :P, my room temperature is usually 67-72 usually 70, with my room fan a little cooler like 68.

Well if your room would have been 15c then it would have been less impressive.

 

But nice, seems your running pretty cool for such a cheap cooler.

in what way would having negative airflow result in cooler temps? Having more fans in the computer may result in lower temps, but just having negative airflow does not always result in lower temperatures.

Here's a source for that: http://www.extremetech.com/computing/128313-extremetechs-guide-to-air-cooling-your-pc/2

That said - it isn't a gigantic difference in temperatures - just a few °C from what I heard (maybe about 3°C?) - I can't find the source where I heard it first anymore. Anyway, the main thing in this case is that negative air pressure will do pretty bad things to your case insides in terms of dust.
