hello, my i5 3470 processor max temp reaches up to 67c while on full load . I'm currently using the stock cooler without any overclocking ...

is this temperature safe ? or should I need to buy an aftermarket cooler ?

Hello Shaun D,

For troubleshooting we would recommend you to replace the thermal material on your processor die and monitor the temperature.

If your processor is reaching up to 67°C during heavy load this will be considered within the specifications based on your processor Tcase 67°C, but if you notice it reaches up to 93°C or higher, then, an overheating problem is happening.

Regards,
