Hi guys,
My 2500k is cooled with d14 and is currently at 4.2ghz with 1.2volts. Do you think that 63 degrees load is ok? My room temp is about 25.
 
Solution
If your room is around 21C then the D14 usually goes a bit below 60C. The ambient temperature sometimes has even greater impact than the CPU cooler, because after all, its that same temperature of the air that you use to cool your CPU. For example, long ago I did an experiment on a C2D with Akasa Nero cooler. At 20C and 25C room temps, I was getting over 11C difference in CPU temps. The difference is not linear, meaning if the difference between 2 ambient temps is 5 degrees, that will translate to more than that in CPU temperature.
