AMD Fx-8350 hitting 67 Degrees Celsius HELP

Grantskys13 · Sep 17, 2014

AMD Fx-8350 hitting 67 Degrees Celsius when it is running 100% with stock fan. Is this WAY to much. I'm kinda scared...

Any help is great guys!

Actually if it is hitting 67C its actually well within the safety limits. 80C is the point to start worrying. Given stock coolers just barely get the job done usually, 67C I would think is better than you should of expected.

Get a after market cooler the stock CPU fan is not good on the FX-8350 the Hyper Evo 212 should be fine

Use AMD OverDrive to determine the 'Thermal Margin' of your processor.

67 sounds pretty normal, since my 8320 runs 60-65 under load. If you want to get an aftermarket cooler, by all means, it would probably lead to a quieter, cooler system, but it's nothing urgent.

Ok Awesome! I was worried because some websites just said don't go above 60. Didn't want my new PC to blow up

Thanks again!

Wisecracker :

Thanks. But it says my thermal margin is 55 C. Any suggestions on what that means?

Yea you should be fine with 67C. You don't want to overclock without getting better cooling, but at 67C you should be okay. So no worries

If you can get an aftermarket cooler and use decent TIM along with good case flow. Your CPU will perform better. (throttling)

That has to be at idle...and it means you have substantial thermal headroom. Crank-up the stability test to 100%-load and it will likely drop to the 18-20C range.

I would not trust any temp readings other than AOD and the 'Thermal Margin' -- I also would not trust anyone who says 67C (up to 80C) is okay as AMD has never officially released a number and calculates its thermal profile in a different manner than Intel.
