[Help - Other] Cpu heating up

[Trilogy]

When running gunz, my cpu tends to go to 70-76 degreese. i have an i3 processor. is that too much?

Celsius? That's too much for a shitty game such as GunZ :C

In general, 70-76 should be fine since most CPU's can easily survive a temperature up to 90-100 Celsius.
You might want to open the chassis of your computer and blow out all of the dust. (With compressed air, if possible.)
And don't forget the heatsinks and the fan of the CPU.

thx dave ill do that rigt now.

Also when just on facebook orsoemthing it goes to like 65

[Dave]

And of course do this when you shutdown your PC.
In extreme cases you can see a 15-25 Celsius difference after blowing out all of the dust.

Vacuum cleaner is another option but there's a risk of damaging your hardware because of a static electric charge.

Using a hair dryer works,But do not use it too much as it over heats the systems and screws it up big time..

@Op, unplug all fans and then you are free to get rid of any dust.
