Client optimisation and AMDs

Just as an update. .. I overclocked my FX 8350 from 4.0 ghz to 4.7 ghz over the weekend. Even with the additional heat from the OC after a few hours of play I still didn't get any where close to any dangerous temps. If I may ask what software are you using to monitor your temps? I found that the software AI Suite from my ASUS mobo often gave me incorrect readings while I was monitoring my stress tests.

 

Everyone's really helpful round here
Thanks for the links, though i'm already aware!

Will sound like a brocken record, but it is precisely due to my being aware that i set up my tower, fans, air flow, etc as they currently are. It is why, sans liquid cooling, which really is overkill, i have managed to be just fine in ANY, ANY other game out there. Up to now

In the off chance my reaching an average of 30C (as mentioned in the OP) seems a lot, mind you that said temps are reached playing games of this current year and in full settings, both from within the game and outside it. Nvidia CTPL, downsizings, injectors. I benchmark me regularly, so i do have some awareness of where "i am", not only performance-wise, but more importantly, temperature-wise. And where i am is more than fine, in regard to my processor model.

In the interest of fairness, yes, Unity is known to cause such issues prior to being optimised. Hence the OP. A mere acknowledgement would suffice!
And again, thanks for both your input and patience guys, much obliged
