CPU temperatures high?

[tacticious]

My h80i cooler broke down so I had to leave it for repairs, now my PC is being cooled only by my:

Intel stock cooler on my i5-3570k
2x Stock coolers in the Define R4 case
My temps are : 



I should be worried, shouldn't I ? I did remove the old thermal paste from both the CPU and the intel cooler and applied new paste.

I am not overclocked right now as you can see.. wtf

[AlwaysFSX]

Did you happen to put a fan on that heatsink?

[tacticious]

Did you happen to put a fan on that heatsink?

Im not sure im following?

the Stock Intel Cooler is on my CPU - the single fan thing

[2CoolforCPU]

Nothing to worry about right now, but it's clearly hotter than it should. So you should get a new one in the future

[MegaDave91]

Not even at full load...yeah those are high temps.

[Altecice]

Check that its on correctly, the fan is plugged in and spinning.

Ah... well you are having it get that hot and it's not even under load I guess just don't do anything too intensive on your computer and it'll be fine

I will get either a fixed or a new h80 back from the store where I bought it.. but that can be in like 3 weeks.

 

Not even at full load...yeah those are high temps.

yeah, that's what worries me.. I cant even paly a game now.. Reached 97 degrees at one point..

I suggest not doing anything too taxing on the CPU until you get your H80i working.

[tacticious]

Now my PC keeps underclocking by itlself and im running at these temps.. wat

is this under load?

 

Edit: nevermind.

 

Re apply the heatsink with less thermal paste, rather have no thermal paste than too much.

i would recommend buying a temporary CPU cooler, for example the cm vortex or related. Because if this is not under idle, then i wouldn't Even dare to open a program

[tacticious]

is this under load?

no, but with skype/chrome running and some other crap

now im at these temps, more or less and my pc keeps underclocking by itself? is that normal?

That shouldn't be the problem because the Intel stock cooler comes pre-applied with the correct amount of thermal paste. 

 

EDIT: Just noticed he replaced the pre-applied thermal paste.

the pc underclocking is normal yes, it's a power saving feature, but those temps are still rather high imho, not too sure though since it's haswell and not the original thermal paste on a stock cooler.

You only need a tiny blob of thermal paste. If you put too much, it can actually insulate rather than transfer the heat away.

[tacticious]

if it goes again to very very high temps, I will try putting less thermal paste and see then , right now running at about 48 degrees with 20%load

That is normal because it will underclock to avoid overheating. In a decent airflow case, no CPU OC, and stock cooler should provide enough cooling to prevent throttling at idle. I would re-do thermal paste.

try to undervolt a little, it will cut down power use and heat output.

but you will need to run a stability test.

 

i got my 3570k to 1 volt at stock

[KnightWumar]

I just "tried" to push my cpu to see if these are normal and bad new you need to either change cooler or thermal paste. my cpu is also a 3570k and here are my temps with somewhat higher load

 

this is while using a stock cooler ofc
