Hello,
This is my first post and I wanted to start by thanking everyone on the site for helping all us newbies out there. While I was was building my first computer you guys always had the answer. I thought it time to make an account and stop just trolling the forums.
Anyway, I have a i5 3570K OC to 4.2 Ghz. while idle it stays at about 30 C and while gaming it goes up to about 80 max. From what I have read this is normal. My problem started when I installed Far Cry 3, This game brings my temp up to mid 90C (95C max)
Is this healthy and can I continue to play the game with no worries? The CPU tj. Max is 105 C but considering I have been 10 C away its a little concerning lol
BTW I have the stock CPU heat sink installed.
Thanks
