Observation of high temperatures in the i7 10700f processor.
I set up my new rig with an i7-10700f, 360AIO, 32GB RAM, and GTX1070. Idle temps stay between 35-40°C, even at low usage. At 35-40°C spikes reach 5-7°C, but near the 60°C mark they get much higher. My frequency also jumps—sometimes it drops to 3.6GHz and then spikes up to 4.2GHz. It’s normal for this kind of performance, but I’m curious about the stability. Also, rendering in After Effects caused a brief spike to 70-80°C. Thanks everyone!
It's typical. As long as the temperature stays manageable during full-core testing, it's fine. My Ryzen 5 5600X can reach up to 65°C when idle with a brief increase, but it stays below 55°C for 15 minutes during Cinebench R23.
