I have just finished my first time build and installed Real-temp and i noticed the temps at idle were very high and jump up the second you even run media player. Its usually between 50c and 70c which seems very high consider i dont game or run a crazy amount on it.
I installed prime and did a bench mark test and it went up to 108c before i stopped it part way through as that was crazy high.
I have installed my aftermarket CPU cooler perfectly that's the first thing i checked, i also went into Bios and disabled the CPU fan speed control so it runs on full all the time. Oddly enough it still doesn't run all the time, just on and off so...
What else can i do, is there a problem with the cooler or CPU, or simply a setting in the BIOS i have missed.
In will add my flat is very warm usually about 23c and on ground floor so don't leave the window open much but still that's not that hot, would love some help as im getting a bit concerned!!
Thanks in advance, Leon
