Hi,
I built my first ever PC last December, and haven't really been looking at any details about my hardware's health since then...
However today I downloaded CPUID HWMonitor and looked at my CPU temps while I waited for a game to update, and my CPU temps were going all over the place, from around 45C up to 59C at one point.
Since the update finished, I currently have just this webpage open, and my temps have gone down to 31/32C pretty stable.
My question is, is it normal for the CPU to reach around 59C just for an update? Are they particularly CPU-intensive?
I was updating Smite (if that matters). Have I got a problem? I'm using a stock cooler, and the CPU is i5-4590. Any help is appreciated.
