Hello peeps,

I installed my brand new cpu cooler and on idle i'm around 40c and on gaming mode aka BF4 etc max i'm reaching 50c.Isn't it a bit strange to get on idle so high temps?

And to answer your questions i did mount the heatsink 3 times and temps are stable and same

Any ideas?

A btw my cpu FX8120 (not oc'ed)
Sabeertooth 990FX
8GB G-Skill gaming
Sapph 7950 with boost
2x SSD Agility 3

Depends how agressive your fan curve is. 40C isn't a problem for anything so there isn't much of a reason to have the fan going at high speed and making extra noise. As long as your load temps are fine, and it seems they are, don't worry.

Also depends on your ambient temp in the room. My i5-3570k idles at around 38C, maxes in Prime95 at ~68C. In a ~30C room.

Your temps are fine.

Another problem is my cpu fan it's great running also good but the speed meters of AI Suite 2 showing crazy numbers even 0 sometimes when i enable the fan control from bios.When i disable it it gets stable numbers!!!Kinda strange things from the time i installed it.Also connecting it on other connectrors 3 or 4 pin again the same.It runs good only while disabled
