I just built this system a few weeks ago.

Specs:

Gigabyte UD3R
XFX GTX 285 Black Edition
4gigs of ram
Xigmatek CPU Cooler
E8500 *stock for now*
Corsair 650watt psu

Core Temp says my cpu idles @ 34 celcius, and when I play games, goes to about 40 celcius.

The EasyTune6 software for my mobo, say's my cpu is running at 20 celius when it's idleing and my system temp idles @ 30celcius...

Are these good/great/ok/bad temps?

Thanks

Those temps are perfect. I idle at 30-34c and when playing games it goes up to around 40c.

Believe CoreTemp. Do not believe Easytune. I find it difficult to believe that, even at stock speeds, a processor would idle at or below room temp with air cooling.

Why hello,

1) this Dipshit does not even say what kind of PCU he has because the XFX GTX 285 Black Edition is a video card soooo. and 2.) I have a AMD phenom II X3 AND MY COMPUTER IS "Air cooled" but one with the point of my ranting My PCU idles at at about 19*C and i have Coretemp so how about you get your facts stright and go have fun playing world of war craft

19C is 66F. That means you must have 50F or below room temperature? You can afford internet but not a heater? :lol:

Someone sure sounds foolish, and its not the OP. :kaola:
