Hello everyone. I have a noob question. It has been about 6 months since I got my PC and my computer has been getting above 80 degrees celsius. I dont know what to do. Not sure how to change the water cooler. My water cooler is Asetek 550LC 120mm Liquid Cooling CPU Cooler. Thank you in advance! :D
 
the temps are kinda OK for something like i7-7700K with 120mm wannabe liquid cooler under load. And they are still in the "safe" range.
if you are looking for suggestion how to improve the temperatures, please take some time to share more details about your computer and environment.
1. room temperature (estimation is good enough)
2. CPU model
3. CPU settings (clock and voltage)
4. Computer case model and fans configuration (adding pictures won't hurt)
5. programs that creating load for high temperatures.

No i have not cleaned out the fans/radiator for dust. I am looking at the radiator right now and it looks pretty dusty so I am going to clean that soon.

Cleaned out radiator of dust, works better but found out that the fan behind my radiator is not working :p Contacted where I bought my PC and they are hopefully going to send me a new one to replace.
