Hi, I was wondering if these temps sound right with the Kraken X61 in push-pull with four Noctua NF-a14 fans. I am using the cam software with fans at 45% (780rpm) for temperature readings, min 18C(unrealistic) max 65 with 3 torture tests in prime 95.Does this sound like realistic temperatures for a 280mm Radiator, and are they safe?

Cpu voltage: 1.385 goes to 1.404V if doing something intensive
cpu FX-8350- at 4.515Ghz
Motherboard: Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 (with updated BIOS)
GPU Gigabyte G1 GTX 980
max temp when gaming is usually 56C

what I'm basically asking is are these temps wrong since I know most people say it is actually 10 degrees lower because it doesn't use a thermometer and instead algorithms.

The case I am using is a NZXT Phantom 820 one 200mm intake in front pus-hpull radiator on top and a be quiet silent wing 2 120mm in the rear.

Try to keep below 62c on the core/package temp. Even though the absolute max is around 70c not many people would actually be keen on running their CPU's at 65c for prolonged periods of time. The idle core/package temps are bugged and only actually report proper temps once they reach the 40-45c zone. I suggest lowering your clock speed to 4.4Ghz. You might get 4.4Ghz with anything between 1.35-1.36V and slightly lower temps.

its usually around 54-58C 65 was with prime 95 for 3 tests no program can increase the cpu temp more than prime 95. 65C is the absolute worst case scenario.
