My PC components too hot?
Last response: in Components
Hey!
I'm not sure if this is the right category to post in, but I'll give it a try.
So basically I updated my PC few months ago and I've been monitoring the temperatures and I can't really say that I'm satisfied with them.
My specs:
CPU: AMD Phenom X4 955 3.2 GHZ (Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 CPU Cooler used for it)
PSU: Corsair CX 500W
Motherboard: ASUS M5A87
GPU: AMD Sapphire 6870 1GB
Case Feel 507
My idle temps are:
CPU: 47 C
GPU: 55 C
Motherboard: 47 C
When I'm playing they all go up to 60 C.
Should I be worried?
It might be due to the bad airflow , cause I only have 1 case fan which is on the back. (Exhaust fan) So I don't have an intake fan.
My case is kinda old so I can't really set up more fans, there is a place on the front in side I thought I would place a fan there to blow the air trough the case/components and then my recent fan can suck the air out. Would this be a good idea?
