Hello,
I am from India, and I wanted to ask some questions regarding my desktop, I recently upgraded my cabinet and power supply to antec vp700p and cabinet antec gx200.
1. i use my radeon settings software to monitor my cpus speed and temp, is that reliable?

2. Before upgrading my cabinet and power supply my temp acc to radeon used to be around 70c, now its the cold season in delhi(india) atm so now my temp when comp is idle or when im surfing is around 50c-55c but when i play my games like skyrim or dragon age inquisition the temp jumps to 80c, is that normal even in cold season? todays temp where i live is around 23c btw just for info. im guessing in hot season it will reach 90c or above? thats bad right?
3. I have taken off one side of my cabinet for a little more cooling, is there anything else i can do to make it less hot? like increase my fan? i have 1 cpu fan and 1 extra fan from the new cabinet i had installed, theres room for a 3rd fan if i want too. how cna in increase my fan speed? cause im thinking if someday it reaches 90c the hardware life will severely reduce?
4. Currently i have an i5 3rd gen processor 3450 @ 3.10 ghz and graphics card amd radeon HD 5450. So im going to upgrade to i7 5th gen processor in the next month and my graphics card, can you suggest me the next best graphics card compared to my current one that will go well with my antec power supply and around the range of 10,000 indian rupees.
5. Related to my previous questions, is nvidia better or radeon with my power supply? you can suggest me either depending on what you think should be best
Thank You.
