i5 4460

i got this i5 4460 this week and the CPUTIN is reading around 49-50c IDLE is this normal or hot for this cpu? as you can see from the max was 63c after playing GTA V for 45 mins or so. case is a define r4 with 4 140mm silent fans running but i live in the south east U.S. so my room is pretty hot because i only run a ceiling fan so could this be the reason? i used another 4460 in a build for my sisters pc last year and i remember her CPUTIN being around 40c.

50C would be high on idle for any processor unless the ambient temps were high too. But you might want to verify your readings are right using some other monitor. For instance, I'm pretty certain your system fan did not actually run 61 thousand revolutions per second...

The very least you could go into the system BIOS and see what idle temp it's reporting. If anything's gonna be accurate, it's the BIOS.

Cputin isn't your cpu temp. It would be one of the supporting component and 50°C is far from the danger zone for those components.

 

Always go by the core temps. They are the only temps that matter for a cpu. Always go by the hottest core.
