    Re: QOTW: How hot does your CPU run?

    The only test that I'm interested is how hot it get's when gaming.
    i5 6500 non-k with stock cooler I haven't seen it go above 66c and at idle it's 25c.

    FX-8350, max temp 47c.

    I'm guessing at the room temperature, but a safe bet would be just over 20c (it's 17c outside, and noticeably warmer in here). Idle temperature is ~32c today. The cooler is a Prolimatech Genesis Black Series (£15 off ebay!) with just one fan, in the blow-onto-board position (the other half of the cooler sits very close to the exhaust fan anyway, such is the size of the beast). I suspect the key factor here in the low temperature is the case, which is like a wind tunnel. The case fans are all pwm, and I reckon that the temperature would come down even lower with 3-pinners installed.

    Cooler: Noctua nh-d14
    Temps: 83°C - 91°C

    My machine is obviously not made to run the latest versions of prime. In real life scenarios the CPU stays much cooler.

    I could get better results with a water cooling solution but I didn't decide for one, yet.

    Warm enough to keep the case spiders happy :-)
