Hello, most of the times, I'm using the RealTemp program when I'm running games, it's been literally two months since I'm using it, and it became an obsession, anxiety etc etc to check my cpu If it's getting hot. But I'm sure that when I run this program and the game, the computer's case gets very hot than usual. So, I wanted to ask, is it a stress-test/bad thing to run this program while playing? Is it using the cpu cores and working on them and playing a game is also stressful making it do more work? My specs are :

Motherboard : ASRock z87 Extreme 4
CPU : Intel i-5 4570 3.2GHz + Hyper EVO TX3
GPU : GTX 970 EVGA 4GB SC ACX
RAM : 8GB
PSU : 530 ATSX
Monitor : Samsung 1920x1080 native resolution.

Again, sorry for the silly question, just want to know everything and give my stressful mind a rest.

Forgot to mention the temps, idle is : 40C max, and when gaming is around 67-68C. These temps should get in to account that they are like that when gaming, games like Skyrim with mods Realvision/Tera/Tomb Raider 2013 ultra settings. When gaming, I'm using the RealTemp program, and I think it gets like 5-8 more C. Not 100% sure though.
 
Solution
Try AIDIA 64 it can monitor temps and do load tests which will tell you if your cpu is throttling. Real Temp should barely put any load at all on your cpu maybe 1-5% max.
