Recently I purchased an FX-8320 CPU to replace my FX-4100.
I got it installed and put an Corsair H60 liquid cooler on it. However when I'm reading temps in HWINFO, I noticed that my motherboard CPU socket reading was 35*C on idle and cranked all the way up to 54*C on full load using Prime95 for 30 minutes. I do have my BIOS set on the stock motherboard TURBO setting which overclocks it to a meager 4.1GHz.
Should I be concerned about these temps? Does that seem high to anyone else considering the max operating temps for this chip is 65*C?
