CPU Usage while streaming.

Hello, I just recently started streaming and one game I like to stream is BF3. BF3 is pretty CPU heavy off the bat and while streaming my CPU usage gets to like 75-95%. Temps hang around 48-55C. The temps are fine but is it bad to run your CPU at that level for 2-4 hours?

those temperatures are fine for running at 2-4 hours you'll have no troubles or worries.

Thanks for the fast response! I just wanted some sort of reassurance.

you could probably run at those temperatures at all times but those are temperatures are good while under load and shouldn't be that high for idle.

Yeah, they idle around 29c and 55c during 100% load. Thanks again.
