~50c idle i5 7600k

[z]

Hi, my i5 runs at around 40-50c idle. Im using it when a hyper 212, Gaming temps are 50-60c.

Should I buy a new cooler for black friday? Im gonna be able to have around 60-80 dollars so should I go AIO? Thanks.


p.s 2 of my fan blades on my GPU broke off. Temps are exactly the same. Should I get them replaced or should i just leave it?

Those temps are perfectly fine. In fact, unless you want to overclock further than you already can, then you don't really have to do anything about the cooler.

Is there an overclock on the CPU?
What is the ambient temp like? (This will result in higher temps.)
How fast is the CPU fan spinning at idle? (Higher idle temps.)
Are you sure the cooler is seated properly?

It has to be one of these three, because I've got the i5-6600k (@3.6-9Ghz), Intel stock cooler, and it's running 29 degrees (Pretty much idle.)

Gaming temps are fine, plenty of headroom, you won't really have a problem until 75c, then I'd start worrying, but below that you're fine.

As for the AIO, unless you're planning on doing super heavy overclocks (5+Ghz), there really isn't a point. The 212 Evo will handle any light overclock.


I'd replace the GPU fan if I were you. It will have an impact, if not now, later, when the dust builds up.
(You could just ghetto it, and take the shroud off, and strap 2 80-120mm fans on it with Zip-ties. Would prolly result in better temps too.)

You're fine. Stop worrying. You should be worrying if the CPU is at 90+ degrees.

If your clocks are constantly raised even at idle, that would be why.
Anything running in the background can cause this, so you should sort that out

also

Go into the BIOS and enable Intel Speed Step(If not enabled)
This will allow the clocks to lower when power is not needed

The issue with the fan blades, as they are uneven they are probably causing the blades to shake or spin unevenly, if temps are the same and there are no sound defects, i suppose it could be left alone.

Hyper 212 is plenty for that CPU, as youve stated yourself with temps being 50-60c with load, thats NORMAL temps. You dont need a different cooler as far as that goes.
