I recently built an HTPC for use on our TV for watching movies, surfing, light gaming, etc. The System configuration is as follows:
CPU: Haswell i5-4590s (65w) using stock cooler
MB: ASRock B85M-ITX
Memory: 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws (2x4GB) DDR 3 1600
Vid card: EVGA GTX-950
Case: Cooler Master Elite 130
Using CPUID HW Monitor I noticed that this lower-power CPU was running at about 60C at idle ... but at idle the CPU is at 25%. Here is a screenshot:
I would appreciate any help the forum could assist here. If it were as simple as removing the cooler and reapplying fresh paste I would do it ...
Thank you ...
