Although I am not new to system building, I felt it was best to ask for some help before things get out of hand. I just finished a new personal build, but I am having major overheating problems with the processor. My new Build includes the MSI A78-E35 Motherboard, 8GB of Crucial Ballistix DDR3, and the AMD Athlon X4 760k @ 3.8GHz (No OC). On startup, I am getting about 30-33C, however after running for around two minutes (about the time I get into Windows) the temp jumps to 60C+. And at load? 70-80C. After 180F, I just shut down the PC to be safe.I just replaced the Thermal paste last night (thinking the stock paste was the problem), however I have yet to see any change in temperature. The stock AMD fan is running at about 2800-3500rpm, but i am afraid to turn it up any higher. The Case has two 140mm intake fans, as well as a 120mm exhaust fan. IF anyone needs more info, Ill be gald to provide it, but at this point I have pretty much drained all of my resources, so I look forward to anyone who can help me with this. Thanks!
