Hello guys with your help in my last post I was able to choose all the correct parts to build my first rig, and since you were so helpful I need some help with just one more question. I am hoping this is the correct thread for this, apologize if it's not!
Anyway my computer has been running amazing and I love it, but am a little concerned with the temp I guess. I had a Corsair HX750 PSU, which has a zero rpm mode so my fan doesn't even spin when browsing the internet or even playing low games like WoW on Ultra. So in general my computer is very silent but when I enter Battlefield 4, playing on Ultra with no lag at all, my computer of course starts working hard and the fans get really loud.
Now I don't mind this at all, it sounds like normal fans, but it just sounds like it's under way to much stress, and I end up taking a break after 30 minutes or so for it to cool down.
I just wanted to get your opinion as to if this is normal or not since I've never had a gaming pc that is capable of playing games on Ultra. Is it safe to play like this for a couple hours at a time? Should I let it cool down every couple games?
I am not overclocking at all. Idle temps are around 49c all around, not sure how to know what it is when gaming though.
I have the default HAF 932 Advanced case fans, but will be upgrading to aftermarket fans in the next week if it matter.
Again i'm sorry if this is a dumb question i'm in love with my computer as i'm sure many of you are so I wanna make sure it's okay
Specs: Z87-G45 motherboard
R9 280x
HX750
i5 4670k
Vengeance 8 gig 1600MHz
Kingston 128gb SSD
stock intel heatsink
