    I am very paranoid about my computer temps, then again who isn't :) Well i was playing Call of Duty 4 on playable settings for 15 - 20 mins and my temps are as follows (IN PIC) do u think they r safe or bad and if u think they r to high plz recommend any mods, ideas, and what u can do to make these temps go down at east 5 Celsius. Im more worried about the gpu and cpu temps.

    59C and 41C is nothing to worry about at all. Don't worry thats pretty cool temps for gaming. I constantly game at 80C+ temps. I would start to worry once it hits the upper 90's.

    Your GPU's temperature is off the charts! It's not good at all! Temperatures should top at around 78-80 max.

    Did you update your bios and graphics card driver?

    Hi,

    If you discarded the stock thermal pad and got just thermal paste on the
    GPU it is wrong. There is at least 1mm gap between the hitsink and GPU.
    You will have to redo it properly using thermal pad.

    Cheers...
