Just got an A8-3870k paired with an ASUS F1A75-M motherboard and some 8gb of DDR3 1600. I have an issue, the APU keeps overheating. Here is the situation.
Temperature at:
idle is a cool 27 C,
Normal use about 32-40 C
Gaming 70 C !!!!!!
This is on the stock cooler and no overclock. Stock clocks on everything. Are any of you APU owners experiencing very high temps when gaming?
I cleaned off the stock grease and applied some arctic silver 5. Temps are slightly lower on idle and normal use, but my gaming temp still goes thru the roof.
Any suggestions beside an aftermarket cooler?
Thanks.
