Here are my idle and under load temps.

Idle: 35-40c

Under load: 75-80c

Are these temps alright? My case is kinda dusty and doesn't have the best air flow. I think I changed thermal paste about a year ago. Just wondering if I will get a difference in temps if I dust out my case? It has also been about a year since I dusted it. Thanks!

Those temps are fine, cleaning it might allow easier airflow if theres dust on fans or around parts that can get hot, so it could help

A little high for a non K SKU i5 to be running at load but nothing to worry about. I'd ramp up the fan curve a little bit to get it down to like 60c.

If your using the stock intel fan then those temps are pretty much normal under load.

Just to be safe I think I will dust it out today and order some thermal paste just to be safe. I am not totally sure how to up the fan speed in the bios, but will look into it. Thanks and +rep for everyone!

If you're using a stock cooler, those temps are perfectly normal. Cleaning your case out a bit will probably reduce temps slightly.
