60°c on gaming

[Alekz2010]

Hello,

I got big temparature problems with my new system.
It runs good and has a good performance but the cpu is way to hot.
Here my system:
AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4ghz
Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3
4GB-Kit G-Skill RipJaws PC3-10667U CL7
XFX RADEON HD 5870 1GB DDR5

I use the Mugen 2.
On the desktop the cpu got already 30-40°c, when iam ingame up to 65°c wich is way to hot.

I dont know how i can fix this.
Some suggestion?

Thanks so much!

Hello Alekz,

can you make maybe a picture from you computer. I will check cable managment and airflow. You screwed the backplate maybe to less ?

Hey,

I just checked it and i think the cooler was not centered on the cpu.
I centered it and now i still got up to 40°c on the desktop but when iam ingame (bad company 2) it only goes up to 48°c wich is fine, isnt it?

I hope that was the problem or just random success?
What do you think?
