CPU not above 50C

[iBasW]

Hi there,

 

I recently built my first own PC, this one: https://pcpartpicker.com/b/DdyfrH

Now I wanted to do a CPU stress test on my Xeon E3-1231v3, to see how hot it would become, but I saw something strange.

 

After running Aida64 for about 10 minutes, the hottest the CPU had been was 52C, and it was going around 50C.

I don't have a very special cooler, a budget Cryorig H7, so I was expecting some high temps but I got something very different.

 

Now I don't know if I should be happy or be worried, everything else on the PC is smooth like butter.

What should I do?

BTW maybe this information is needed:

 

The ambient temperature of my room is about 18C and my average idle temp is about 25C

thats about right. nothing to worry about. aida64 doesnt get hard on your cpu compared to other stresstests. and your ambient temp is quite low, its fine.

Can you recommend another stress test that will put a lot of stress on my CPU?

nothing tbh.

As long as your cpu maxes out during aida64 and your performance is also normal (maybe try cinebench) you are fine, i can give you a score from my xeon if that helps you

Seems right I think.

 

And that Cryorig H7 is the best budget cooler on the market right now in my opinion.

[Minsekt]

is personally use realbench and hwbot x265 benchmark.

Thank you all, I'll try that one

The lower the temps the better!
