hi, I have and amd a10 5800k cpu with gpu integrated.

So it comes with 3.8 ghz from factory and turbo mode goes to 4.2 ghz, wich I enabled it trough A-tunning and now everytime i log in to pc its 4.2 ghz. I really dont mind it being 4.2 ghz but i dont like my temps, normally its between 60 - 70 C and when i play it goes up seventy, i just put some thermal paste in the cpu and the v-core was set 1.45 so I put it in 1.3.

But it stills gives me some bad temps and when playing like cs go it sometimes gets low fps when it shouldnt. That didnt happen before

Do you think i messed it up with v core? Should i raise v core? Sould i give up on the overclock?

Thanks

70 C is perfectly fine for an APU, they tend to run hotter because they're basically doing two jobs. Reset your voltages to default if it was working fine.

70 C isn't going to damage your APU but if you still don't like it getting that warm, you can get a bigger cooler.

Hmm, i dont think so because im using cpuid to monitor temps.
So maybe its the v-core, should i stop the overclock.

It has registered max temp 84 C while playing cs go, i think thats bad no?
