Hey, from Germany—thanks for sharing. Your setup sounds solid, but you're right to be concerned about the CPU temps. Combining an 8,760 series GPU with a 1050 Ti should handle it, but keeping an eye on temperatures is key. The GPU stays around 60°C during games, while your CPU never exceeds 36°C and the MSI cooler shows 15°C in idle. That’s great! To monitor CPU temps more accurately, consider using tools like HWMonitor or Core Temp, which give precise readings. Also, ensure your case is well-ventilated and that the GPU is properly cooled—sometimes ambient heat can trick the system. If you want, I can suggest some better monitoring setups for gaming rigs.

Hi there, welcome to Austria! I’m using either AIDA64 or HWinfo, and both are working perfectly for me.

The CPU (TCTL) is a detailed specification file, while the CPU Package (TSI) contains the actual hardware components and their configuration.

The Fm2 boards and all the AMD CPUs on them often showed thermal readings that were off by about 10 to 15 degrees Celsius, especially for lower-end components.
