Good I5-3570 temps?

[Sigky69]

Recently I got a used i5 3570, everything was fine, 38C idle temps, smooth tasks etc.
But when I started BF1 to test it out, it higrocketed to 88C! about 30C more than my i3 3220 with a generic paste!
I exited BF1 in fear of them increasing even further to 90C and noticed that the temps then stayed at around 45C.
Everything else was fine, GPU at around 68C.
Is it normal for my 3570 to reach 88C? Im using my cooler from the i3 and NO overclock in any form, along with a Cooler Master HTK-002, properly applied.
IF its a cooler problem, what cooler should I get thats cheap and low-profile?

Yea i think your using a stock cooler. For a i5 max loaded cna be quite hot. Dont worry, aslong as dosn't go over 95 them it should be fine. If not then i might be a good time to get a new cooler. A Gamer Storm Gabriel would be a nice pick

Quick update, reapplied thermal paste with line method, idle temps went down by 3C and 50% load actually decreased a lot, 55C (used to be 65), but seems that 100% temps are still around 88C, is there a CPU limiter or something to limit my CPU to work at a certain limit to maintain cool temps?
Ambient temps are 29-31C btw

88c should not hurt your CPU. Throttle point is 105c for your chip, which is what Intel considered the upper safe limit. Lowering your temps can't hurt, but I don't think you need to throttle down your clockspeeds. You might go into BIOS and adjust your fan speed profile, or perhaps adjust or add case fans. Worst case (if you find it's climbing much higher than 88c during real-world loads) you can open up Windows Power Options and under "Processor power management", set your maximum processor state to something less than 100%. I'd consider this a last resort.
