So I installed 2 new fans in my case which makes it a bottom, side, and front intake and a back and two top exaust fans. My GPU, a GTX 760 is overclocked to the highest I could keep it stable but everything else is stock. Speedfan now reads the GPU at around 40C and my cpu 13C-30C. the first core being the warmest at 20 range on idle 30ish when im gaming. Is this too low? my house is 68F

Once you get below a certain temp those readings become inaccurate. There really isnt such a thing as too cold, as long as you dont have something below 0 in there.

What cooler are you using? Those temps are great, but probably not the stock cooler.

30 under load is a great place to be.

Well I have been using SpeedFan for a while, and before adding bigger / more fans my temps were much higher. I tested the CPU using AIDA 64 just now, the temps were initially at 50C on that program and jumped up to 78-90C once I started testing. Speedfan at the same time recorded my temps jump from 30C 1st core 19C 4th core to all just around 78-85C. A few degrees lower and AIDA but similar *update after running AIDA 64 for a bit my temps are in the 99C range. * Idk why when idle my computer can be so low and when under load it can't cool but I was just wondering if it was possible to be too cold

Intel CPUs are fine until they're at about -200c, where they begin to get what is called a "cold bug". So no, unless you're using liquid helium, your CPU cannot be too cold. However, I wouldn't use SpeedFan to monitor temps. It's known to be very inaccurate sometimes. Use RealTemp.
