Temperatures?
by EyelessCZ Feb 25, 2014 5:58AM PST

Thank You, I have no name Power source which effectively delivers 600W and honestly I thought about GTX 770. So U think it was enough? Does that card runs Metro last light at max details? I saw few clips on youtube which proves that but I am affraid of temperatures. Now under pressure my CPU generates 65°C and sometimes I recieved warning message from Asus AI. My cooler is Thermaltake Macho 02 and still I thing it is at max. When I do the upgrade, what I shoul expect about temperatures?

Fix the cpu temps.
Don't muddy the water with a higher perf gpu.

If your overclocking stop that non-sense.
Remove the side panel....test.
Refresh the thermal paste....test.
