I'm using rivaturner to monitor my temp during gaming and my CPU and GPU only max at 65 degree at full load usually
which is good but when I touch my tempered glass, it doesn't feel like 65 to me more like 75 to 80. So how accurate is the sensor actually?? |

But unless you gaming in aircond and play light game or cap the temp to 65c it's hard to believe GPU only max at that temp.which is good but when I touch my tempered glass, it doesn't feel like 65 to me more like 75 to 80. So how accurate is the sensor actually??  How many % GPU utilization? CPU is normal around 60 plus for gaming |

Thats what bugging me. I play witcher 3 at ultra setting, GPU load usually at 80-90%. No aircondHow many % GPU utilization?

go study science bro. why dont you ask why your gpu 65C but your room is not 65C? summore you dare to tell you touch tempered glass. is glass a good heat conductor in the first place?

do you even know what 75-80c feels like..? like have you tried boiling water and pour it into a separate flask and leave it for 1-2 minutes, and use your hand to touch the flask? that's what around 80c feels like..

It's as good as it can get in lieu of owning a temperature gun.
Look at relative temperatures if youre undervolting/overclocking, dont mind absolute temps as long as you didnt hit the thermal limit (which I think is 85'C) |

More accurate than your hand
Btw if your tempered glass side panel gets unreasonably hot means the airflow inside the case is unoptimised |
