Downloaded core temp today just out of curiosity, saw my core temperature on my processor was around 70 degrees celsius, i didnt think that was good an made a quick google search to make sure. Obviously (as i know now) thats too high. I opened up the computer and discovered the cpu fan wasnt on 100% and fixed it.
The temp is now around 45-52 degrees celsius while doing nothing on the desktop. Its better but from what i can tell its still too high! Why? This is at the load being 0-5%! There was no dust on the fan. Maybe its my thermal paste crap? Its a stock cooler and no ocing (obviously). How would i know the thermal paste stuff isnt right? When i run minecraft it jumps to 70-80! Maybe i should just buy another non-intel brand cooler and see how it goes? Maybe my cpu is just bad?
