Help! High CPU temperature (thermal paste change)

[Sylver]

Even so, it's a bit hot, I would have to check the heatsink mounts, because my 2500K without OC with the stock one is at 33º browsing and editing images right now...

a question, is the heatsink standard? if so, those temperatures are normal

regards

[trialf]

yes yes, it is without oc and with the heatsink that comes standard.
Right now it's at 41º-43 without doing anything, just browsing

@trialf:

si si, es sin oc y con el disipador que trae de serie.
Ahora mismo esta a 41º-43 sin hacer nada, solo navegar

Entonces es cosa de que la caja está mal refrigerada, tal vez sea fresca pero no tenga suficientes ventiladores para que circule el aire a su través o que estén mal ordenados los cables y dificulten el flujo de aire interno.

No obstante, 41º navegando es temperatura correcta con disipador de stock, ahora no tienes más de que preocuparte.

Another important aspect is the thermal paste you have used. Some, like Artic Sylver, need a few days of curing to start giving good temperatures. They can improve between 2 and 8° in a week. Another issue is whether you have activated in the bios the option for the motherboard to manage the fan speed. If not, it is possibly fixed at a certain number of revolutions and does not increase if the temperature rises. Which does not surprise me because the stock ones are quite bad.

Good morning! Regarding the case, it has the source at the bottom, fan at the front and another at the back, and it makes a good breeze all around xDD.
What is that the case has some holes to put the cables, which I didn't do hehe so I guess they will bother a little, but not much because they are mostly on the front.
Anyway, I just turned on the PC and it has a minimum of 26º maximum of 34º and it's around 29-30
So I think this is normal.
Thank you all for responding so quickly!
PD: Do you advise me to buy some heatsink-fan? Already looking at this PC and future?

It depends. If you are going to make extensive use of the computer and play demanding games for quite a while, then yes. Mostly because every minute of excessive heat for the processor is a minute less of life. The cooler it is, the better.
But if you are going to play sporadically, little demanding games and the processor spends most of the time scratching its belly, then you can almost save it because those temperatures are already good. Anyway, winter is not a good time to look at temperatures. It is best to do it in summer when computers really suffer. If you contain them in summer, the rest is a piece of cake.

I read that you played some more or less demanding games, so if you can put one of these on you will be cured in health:

Arctic Cooling Freezer i30 CPU Cooler UCACO-FI30001-GB Fan/Cooler

The truth is that with the bf4 it's going to be hot xDD
They told me about this one too
Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO CPU Cooler RR-TX3E-22PK-R1 Fan/Cooler
What do you think??

[Nemo]

Before you decide on one or the other, make sure it fits in the box and doesn't touch the side.
Mini point for Cooler Master.

Man, the Cooler Master is smaller but just as effective. Anyway, I'll tell you that you won't have any problems fitting either one into the Xpredator X1, it's a pretty wide case.

Best regards

Good I just finished playing bf4 with high-medium graphics and temperatures of 60º right now I have finished and it is already at 52-54

I will see if I buy a heatsink, probably I will

Thanks for your help
