Just built my first system
Quick spec:-

Amd fx4100 CPU
Asrock 999 extreme 4 MOBO
Cheap ish vtx3d GPU for now
8gb corsair vengeance
Seagate 1.5tb hdd
OCZ 64gb ssd

No over clocking either

Just wondering how do you take temperatures? And monitor them?

I'm after a few more fans and heatsink early next year

Thanks
 
coretemp or realtemp,personally i like realtemp as it monitors graphic card aswell

you always want to take reading off the cpu's core temps as they get the hottest first
 
yeah they work on any board/cpu combo

any or all of those will be fine,uninstall ones that you dont like ect

ohh notsure on amd heatsinks,if they are the same mounting holes then it will fit,try it and see
