I run an FX 6300 (not overclocked) on an ASrock 980DE3/U3S3 with a Nvidia gtx 750ti in a bitfenix neos case. Nothing special but it usually works.

I have two intake fans in the front and an exhaust at the rear.

I also use a arctic cooling xtreme rev 2 cpu cooler using the pre applied thermal paste.

However when idle the pc can reach around 40-45C and when gaming it can reach 75+C, at this point the case becomes hot to the touch.

Is their anyway to fix this? Is my cooler rubbish?
 
Solution
i had a amd fx 6300 and coolermaster hyper 212 evo cooler about 55 c on load and about 35 c idle so that is very high.
try reseating or change the cooler to a coolermaster hyper series or be quiet pure rock that is quality coolers.

Around 1500 rpm.
It's definitely attached I took it off and reattached it and it also gets rather hot.
