Typical temperatures for the I7 10700KF
Relies on several elements such as cooler conditions, fan curve settings, and surrounding temperatures. This explains why idle temps aren't easily assessed with just a CPU, which is why I suggest considering these factors: When idle and the system isn't too noisy, it's acceptable. During load testing or benchmarking, if temperatures stay below 85°C and noise remains low, it works well. If noise spikes occur in either case, adjusting the fan curve may help balance sound and temperature. Excessive noise indicates a need for a more efficient cooler.
Several factors influence temperatures such as cooler conditions, surrounding air, and air movement. There isn't a single definitive solution. Could you share your load and idle temperatures? If your load temps are normal, you can relax about idle temps. Remember, only load temps really count.
