Hello everybody, i hope the thread is in the right section.
After a lot of swearing i chose to seek help on this website.
The main problem is that these days my cpu ( a i74770) is constantly changing idle temps and i can't figure out why... I bought a better case (a corsair spech alpha instead of a generic black one with no cooling whatsoever) , i assembled it three times trying to locate the wires in the best way possible and i also re- applied thermal paste to the cpu just to be sure. I was getting around 28-30 degrees on idle and around 54-55 with some great demanding games (dark souls 3- fallout 4) not so long ago and i was really happy, now i'm getting around 36c° on idle and 62c° under stress.
just for extra, i found out that windows update was using a lot of cpu for some reason, and by disabling it the temp went down a lot (also my gpu is idleing at around 39c° for some reason, a gtx 960)
Now in my city is truly hot and i live in a very small room, could it be that the room temp (around 31-32c°) is dealing so much troubles to my cpu? I think that the room temp was around 25c° when i had the cpu temps at 28-30c°
I apologize for possible bad writing or bad grammar bad i truly need help, thanks in advance
