CPU Heating up too much

[Dvadii]

I bought an CM hyper evo 212 and my i7 3770k still manages to heat up to 84 c. I reapplied thermal paste thinking i put too much and it seemed like it helped but it didn't. The CPU is at stock. (3.5 ghz 3.9 turbo) I have a thermaltake Versa n25. I have 2 intake fans in the front, and 1 in the back. (excluding the one on the hyper evo 212) Can anybody help? Do I not have enough air flow? Can someone help me undervolt it and will that help with temperatures?

You may have applied too much, clean it off and apply only a grain of rice sized amount. I use a old store credit card to evenly apply it over the CPU.

Well you are not saying anything about your vid-cards. Would be nice to know if you have something like 1080 - 1080ti in SLI or something. If yes... you are dumping serious heat into your case.

And I agree, 84 celcius is to high for an 212evo

So add up some more info about your other hardware that creates heat. And what kind of fan(s) do you have on the 212.

It's an msi r9 270 and for exhaust there's a corsair fan, don't have the name and for the intakes in the front, it has two insignia fans.

Hm, that card dont get "that" hot. And unless you are running the intakes and outakes close to idle rpm there should not be a heating problem. And I guess you dont have a temprature probe so you could see the ambient temps inside the case?
Try to reaply TIM to your heat spreader, very very thin layer and spread it out with an all credit card just as WildCard999 has already sayd.
Could ofc also be that you somehow have messed up the seating up the cooler, so take notice on how you mount it.
