Hey guys, so here's the issue, I've had this PC for almost a year now, it has been serving me well but it always ran quite hot.
Specs: FX 6300 3.5 Ghz undervolted to 1.14v (running stable tho), R9 270 OC'd and 8 gigs of ram.
So the issue is that when I first got it and started some testing it ran really hot on default voltages with turbo boost on.
While doing a benchmark the CPU core temp would reach 70 easily and my "motherboard" temp would go 85c+.
So I undervolted and my cpu core temp doesn't go above 60c at max load, but, one of the motherboard temps tends to reach even 75c.
So what I'm asking is clarification on what the temp of 75c really is.
Is it the VRM's or the socket?Because I know that the VRM's can sustain 75c without any need to worry, but if it's the socket then I have a problem.
I'll post pictures of temps from a few different programs and let you guys be the judge.
I have to note that these shots were taken after a full day of gaming, so the PC has been under some stress and the idle temps might be higher than expected.

The temp of 60c is the one that I'm worried about (this is the temp that tends to reach 75c).
Thank you for your time.
