With a Corsair H75 Water Cooler whilst *Gaming*? i got 56c Celsius in GTA V with maxed settings at 60 fps mainly...sometimes i got just above 60c Celsius. manual fan control knob(for Radiator) at full speed (aint really that loud)

Most games are 54c and under, idle is around 19c and under, thats with rad fans at average

Usually your temps max should be around 65ish C for AMD CPUs while under load. Usually on my air cooler I could hit 29-30's at idle on my Phenom II x 4 OC @ 4.1ghz, but I find 19's a bit unrealistic unless you're running an open test bench inside a walk in refrigerator.

Sometimes, unless you're using the software provided by your MOBO manufacturer to monitor CPU temps (or watching it in the BIOS) the software (like HWMONITOR) can be off by a bit.

HW monitor, the package is skipping from 16c-22c as the "Value" which im guessing is realtime, the max is 37c, max soxket is 39c and max socket when i was playin gta v was 59c and max for package was 56c in gta v

i do live in tasmania AUS...its cold here and just entering winter btw, drastically cold lol, summer is when it below 65, but only by a few degrees, is this enough to worry about, as these chips are only aroun $220AUS

i find that CoreTemp is pretty conclusive to the same as and HWMonitor, also Asus suite II which i had but the pop ups had me worried so i disabled them, they were only popping up sometimes in gta v
