So I bought some hardware off of a buddy of mine. 2 560ti's an AMD 8350, and a Sabertooth 990fx motherboard. He had everything liquid cooled, but I don't really want to mess with that so I'm going all air cooled. The only non-stock part of my setup, is the CPU cooler I have, which is the Hyper Evo 212. I have all of this stuffed into an Antec 300 case, with 2 front intakes, rear exhaust, and top exhaust. My temps have been pretty worrisome, and seeing as my friend had this setup LC'd, I'm not sure if it's normal, or if I should look into maybe buying a new case.
My idle temps for CPU are usually between 34-37c, and the GPU's are 30 for the bottom, and 35 for the top. But once I start gaming, they skyrocket. My CPU gets up to 58c, and the highest I've seen my cards get are 66 for the bottom, and 80-82 for the top card.
Basically, should I be worried about those temps? I know they are definitely pretty high, but I'd like to know if this is something I need to fix asap, or if I have time to save up for a decent case. And if I should get a new case, does anyone have any recommendations? I really don't want to liquid cool this setup, mainly because I've never done it before, and I move this PC around a lot.
