I just recently installed a EVGA GTX 760 2GB as a GPU and upgrade my PSU to 750 W. Now however, my CPU fan is extremely loud. Its idle temp is 50-60 celsius and while I game it goes up to 72 Celsius. The CPU fan is tight as can be. The CPU is an AMD A8 5500 APU.
 
well then ur probably using the stock cooler correct? most likely the thermal paste dried up or there isnt enough contact being made between the cpu and the heatsink, usually the stock cooler can keep most stock cpus under 60c
