    You haven't bothered me, but speedfan is not my favorite. It is really not very accurate and does not usually tell you what the temps are. In many cases it uses averages for temps. I suggest you go into bios and see what the temps are. You may be able to figure it out that way. You can get better CPU and GPU temp monitoring programs. Also, if you have only 2 fans in your case, you need several more.

    Your CPU has a TDP of 71C. It should never be allowed to reach or exceed 71C. So, if SpeedFan has that Temp2 correct, that's barely 19C cushion on that DTP and after a shutdown...

    In the other thread, you said you’re using the stock HSF. Using the stock HSF is highly inadvisable for systems that are not going to be strictly general use (word processing and web browsing). I would have to recommend that you toss on at least a Hyper 212 Evo HSF (or similar-performing one) to give you more TDP headroom for gaming and other taxing tasks.

    Everything else, temperature wise, looks alright (if SpeedFan is reporting accurately). Although, I would recommend CPUID HWMonitor and Core Temp instead of SpeedFan (the latter two report AMD chips more accurately. SpeedFan is hit or miss for us AMD users in particular). What I appreciate most with both of those is that they supply a minimum, current and maximum value (always nice).

    It is a good idea to run at least two monitoring programs to verify accuracy, as a general rule – that’s in addition to checking in BIOS at least once.

    And this might well be overcautious of me, but when configuring graphics settings in a new game I always leave those running in the background to ensure my CPU is never in danger of its 62C TDP, and adjust accordingly if it is.

    Never run 2 temp monitoring programs at the same time. 2 programs reading the same sensor can lead both to be inaccurate.
