Amd CPU temp too high ? Help
What voltage are you operating at? If you kept the voltage in auto mode, it might explain why it's running high or the cooler isn't seated correctly.
So you're using the cooler with the fan positioned at the bottom near the GPU? That's going to add around 10 degrees to your temperatures. The fan by the RAM is usually better, but with this setup it's definitely effective.
Turn the cooler 90 degrees and continue using it as long as it empties from the back of the case.
Just rotate the cooler 90 degrees and then you should be fine as long as it exhausts from the back of the case.
Haha, keeping the fan cooling was always my main concern (and dust), of course my case has six bays to work with. I’m using a Cooler Master N520 (I didn’t use my computer in a while, so I guess remembering the model number helped) and a Thermaltake V3. It’s a tight fit when trying to fit more stuff around the N520, no matter how I position it or move around. But I think the last change I made was RAM, then heatsink, then back.
I always thought that if I exhaust from above the RAM, it might block airflow and create a pocket. At the time, all my super thin fans with great airflow kept failing quickly for just $30 each. You learn from experience.

I’m using a Cooler Master N520—still a bit new after a couple years—and a Thermaltake V3. It’s a tight fit when trying to fit more components, no matter the direction or around the N520. But I think the last adjustment was RAM, then heatsink, then back.

Now I’m starting to wonder if there’s an issue with overclocking. My stock runs around 37°C, but when I push it to 4.3 it hits about 65°C—so definitely something’s off.
