Hi, I've been using my 8350 with watercooling for about a 1.5 year from now. But when I search for the proper temperatures for my cooler (Cooler Master Seidon 120M), I'm worried about MY temperatures... Idling around 35 degrees celsius and under load hitting above 65 degrees celsius... Should I do something or is this normal?

Thanks

not familiar with Cooler Master Seidon 120M cooling capabilities

but your idle temp looks fine,, mine also hovering 29 - 32c normal usage..
for stressed temp, will let other that has more experience..

since if u have done all those step then i think nothing more can be done,
except adding more fan or replace with more potent fan, change thermal paste brand, down clock, etc..
(but it will be extra cost and hassle)..

1. Clean radiator fans and fins properly.
2. Open CPU, scrape the cooling paste then reapply cooling paste.
3. Check wire management and see if there is sufficient space for airflow.
4. Check that the airflow direction is proper. (your case should be taking in air from front or top and exhaust from back.)
5. Check if ur dust filters are clogged.

Mostly for liquid cooling it happens if ur radiator fins are jammed. (use a blower or a brush to clean them)
