CPU/GPU optimal temperature

gyoricsi · May 10, 2014

Hey all! I think my CPU and GPU temperatures are higher than the normal, optimal. When I start playing (BF3) my cpu and gpu are 50°C-60°C. After 1 hour playing my CPU is 70°C and GPU is 65°C. Is that normal and safe? Thanks the answers!

Comp. details:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1
Intel Core i5 4570S @ 2.90GHz
Kingston HyperX 8GB RAM
ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. B85M-G
MSI GTX 770 2GB Twin Frozr
FSP Aurum S Gold 600W

Your temps are normal, nothing to worry about, GPU and CPU will reach those temps in 1 minute, check for yourself, and will stay there for an hour or as much as you play , when you start hitting 90C+ that's where I will start worrying.

Dear,

AT load temps can go much higher. Your CPU temp of 70 is way under limit. Your GPU temp of 65 is very normal (I must say). No issue there at all. If your GPU and CPU temps start reaching 90ish then give here a call

Cheers,

As long as you have fans venting out your case, moving old air out and new in, it is not that much of a problem. Usually motherboards have a system that tells you when it gets too warm. If you run into problems with it telling the warning too much, you may need to add a water cooler or add more fans.

GPU; the temperature is perfectly fine.
CPU; the temperature could be better (this is a 65W processor). The fact that it raise more with the time is due to a not optimal TIM, case and fan configuration. Also with the stock intel cooler you can not expect a better result.

If you do a stress test on the CPU it will not surprise me if the temp reaches +90°C, expecially when using LinX for test the pipeline AVX 2.0 of the Haswell architecture (this extra heat/voltage can be corrected by lowering the Vcore to a stable one, if possible). This is not your case, if your use is mainly gaming.

Normally the CPU temp on an optimized system + aftermarket cooler is around ~50°C maximum, while playing BF3/BF4.
However, you have nothing to worry about, 70°C is not a dangerous temp (but it's better if in the future you prevents the accumulation of dust).
