I just had my custom computer build from NCIX. I have a lot of minor problems. What is the normal or idle temp for this computer. When I play games the fan makes a lot of noise.
When it is idle is is about 40C/100F But when I play game the fan makes a lot noise and heat up til 50-60C Is that normal should I get another fan put into it

The room temperature is definitely a factor.
If that fan will help with your case air flow, you can add it. You can even leave your case open at one side (I reduced my temperatures by 3°C like that). But a new cooler will help a lot more.
But really 50-60°C are good temperatures. I have the same temperatures on my CPU.

AMD processors usually heat a bit more than their Intel counterparts.
But your temperatures are completely fine, nothing to worry about them. You should begin to worry only if they are going over ~80°C.
I strongly recommend you to buy an aftermarket cooler for your CPU, as lower temperatures means your CPU will last longer. :)

Should I add another fan? But my computer makes a lot of noise due to the fans. Also my room is very hot is that a factor for cpu temp being high?
