Hi All,
I just received the following pre-built overclocked system today http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-252-OK&groupid=43&catid=1444&subcat= but I think I've got a major problem with the CPU temperature
I downloaded RealTemp and tested the core temps on the i5 760 and at idle they are ranging from between 60 and 70c. Upon increasing the load the cores are jumping straight to 95-99c !!! Now I've been out of the PC game for a while now but am I right in thinking there is something seriously wrong here!? I assume I should not be getting these sort of temperatures?
Do you think it will be a case of getting the system sent back to check out the problem? I don't think there could be anything easy that I could do myself to sort this.
Really not happy
