60c is HOT! I would never want my computer to run that HOT! Recommend an aftermarket CPU Heatsink and Fan or liquid cooling. Try running your computer with something other than a Video game. What does it run at when you just watch a video or run multiple applications such as Adobe Reader, multiple IE/Firefox windows, etc.....

So what you are saying is you are perfectly fine with your computer running at 60c all the time? Even 50% of the time? That does not have an adverse affect on your CPU over it's life?

Nope. actually a CPU has an IDENTICAL shelf life (doing nothing at all) to its usable life at 100% usage. So no, it does not have any adverse effects. ALSO, 60c is PERFECTLY within the normal range for that CPU. NOT high at all. Overclock 4670k's on CUSTOM water loops still hit 75c PERFECTLY safely.

PLUS his 60c is under load. NOT idle.

Heat is the biggest problem for a computer even in the right hands. Over the lifetime, anything designed to be under high temps is still affected by the fact that it is under those temps. I guarantee you Intel did not take a CPU and test it under those temps for 1-3 years to see how it affects it. My comment never stated it was too HOT for that CPU, just that it is HOT! In any case running your cpu at a much lower temp is always good for it. Why else do cars, which have engines designed to run at high temps, run better when they pull in cooler air? It may not be the best comparsion, but it is an example of what I am trying to say. Cooler is always better especially if you are putting your hard earned money into something you cannot afford to replace easily.

Im sorry but you are just misinformed. 60c is PERFECTLY FINE and within the NORMAL RANGE for that CPU. It WILL NOT affect the CPU at all.

I do extensive work on cars and your analogy is perfectly fine and accurate but in no way relate-able to CPUs. Sorry.

A CPU is designed to have a shelf life of x years. The CPU will also have the same life of x years being used within the normal temp range. This is what you are failing to understand. This is how CPUs work. The CPU is taking NO DAMAGE by being used within its NORMAL range. Not even any wear and tear. It simply does not work that way. Sorry.

Does it even sound lik the fan on the heatsink is running at a higher rpm when the CPU heats up from usage? Just making sure the fan was not connected to a case fan connector vs. a cpu fan connector?

It almost sounds like the fan is not throttling up to compensate when the load is increased to the cpu. The system should cause the fan to increase the rpm's as the heat on the cpu increases. The fan should become very loud when it is under a heavy load causing it to heat up significantly. Unless Intel has perfectly quiet fans and this only happens to my AMD 8350.
