hello friends,
i have a core i3 3220 at stock speed with stock fan/heatsink and it is 45-52 degree C at idle(keeps fluctuating), when i game it reaches upto 80+ degree C, i wonder if this is safe and only normal, or should i get an aftermarket cooler?

thanks and regards
 
Solution
it happen if the legs of the cooler are not locked in look at the back of the mb make sure all the pins are down and locked. if not look for a better cooler that used a back plate.
