    Hello,

    I just wanted to know if an idle of 43c and a high end of 52c(while playing crysis or UT3 maxed) is normal?

    CPU is AMD Phenom 2 x4 920
    GPU Shappire hd4830
    MB GA-MA790FX-UD5P

    The CPU has temperature sensors, if the CPU was overheating it would turn itself off before it reached a critical temp. Theres nothing to worry about, and especially when playing CPU intensive games such as Crysis your bound to have high CPU temps.
