    Cpu heat issues

    Hi I’ve very recently upgraded my cpu cooler due to my old cooler being faulty (there’s a whole thread on that issue if you want some entertainment). I’ll link the video for my new problem but basically my cpu seems to be overheating a lot, hits about 85 Celsius while playing pubg. My thoughts on the possible issue are
    1. not enough case fans. I have one.
    2. ghz for my cpu seems a little high, I’m not entirelly sure I’m reading the correct number. All the info you will need is in the video and I’ll post a picture of the parts I have. The new cpu cooler is a NZXT kraken X52. You tube vid

    One case fan seems hardly enough.
    As a test, take the side panel off, and train a household fan onto the hardware, and see if cooling improves.
    There are other heatsinks on Motherboards which require cool air.
