[GLian8]

Hi i upgraded my PC 9 months ago but now my proceccor is just running way to hot 90+ from just playing league of legends i even bought a new cooling system but still way too high temps

Make sure you have the proper ventilation and cooling.

As long as you are under 100C, you are ok.

well i mean i dont know if it goes over cause when i use the hwmonitor it just jumps from 90 to 100 and i assume that 100 is the max of hwmonitor when i fist got it 9 months ago on idle it was hitting at worse 35 degrees celsius now on idle it has 65 deggrees i am pretty sure somethin isnt right

Ventilation and cooling are brand new as well. I have a brand new corsair h60 and 3 ventilation funs

How is the H60 controlled? Using a fan speed controller on the board? If this is the case, have you verified that the fan speed control programming makes sense? This is typically managed in the BIOS.

Hope this helps,
