6hours playtime and have gpu is at 74

Optimusgrime

So the system was on for 6hours 5 we're gaming at ok settings, using the stock Intel fan and a 970 with  Intel g4560 cpu, just looked at temps and it was starting to get noisey and was at 74 :/ should I be worried ? System has a fan in the front and and the cup fan. Solid top to the case and the case with the mortal mobo doesn't look to fit afan at the back help please

Nah, 74 C is not great for a GPU. But I would not worry until it is over 80 C.

 

As everything heats up, including the room, you reach equilibrium. Where the temps will not go higher. It seems, since you have played for 6 hours, you reached that point.

To RGB, or not to RGB? That is the question.

Nope. anything under 80C is totally fine.

fans might ramp up though, just to keep it safe. you can change the fan curve if you want.

Okay, 74 C on your CPU is a little on the hot side. Especially considering it is a Pentium. I would invest in some intake fans. Some Arctic F12's would do fine. They're pretty cheap and quite good.

To RGB, or not to RGB? That is the question.

@StaffCorporal I was used to a corsair water cooler but there isn't any room for exit fan on the back and the top has no holes :/ didn't really fancy making my own xD

Same goes for the cpu--your temps are fine.

Make sure to use the drop-down menu when tagging.

Your temps are fine and you don't need a new cooler unless they're much higher.
