TStahler :
I removed the top hard drive cage or else my graphics card would not fit. My current motherboard also does not have an option to change the VCore in Bios, so not fun. It really limits overcooking potential. The computer just running idle is very hot. The room is like a suana. The other components seem to be running fairly cool, unlike the cpu. After some research, It would cost me more money to replace the motherboard as Newegg and Microcenter no longer carry Z77 motherboards and ones on Ebay with no guarantee or warranty would run me approximately $300. Or, I could go buy a brand new AMD FX 9590 and brand new Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 R5 Revision 1 for $275. I would simply reuse my Cooler MASTER Seidon cooler with it. My computer is mostly used for our recording studio, although with its specs, it can game with the rest of them. Not sure what would be the best cost effective and value based option here. I think that I will open the case back up and make sure that all fans are running at their fullest potential.
1) Sauna:
The absolute WORST thing you could do then is buy a current AMD CPU. Any power drawn is waste heat dumped back into the room thus making it hotter. A single 60W light bulb can make a noticeable difference so just think what an extra 200W or so with an FX9590 might do.
Idle power drawn for the ENTIRE SYSTEM of an i7-3770K should be roughly 50W+ (not counting monitor). 100W+ under load at stock settings. That's with no graphics card etc. The FX-9590 under load is about 330W (a very small amount will be a graphics card idling).
*There's also no scenario where an FX-9590 will beat an i7-3770K. At best, if all EIGHT threads are used fully the FX-9590 is about 5% faster, however it has minimal or no overclocking left and the i7-3770K does. I'm at 4.2GHz, max Turbo, and no voltage added, just the multiplier altered. Also set it to "41" with all four cores utilized so that's my worst-case.
Keeping the stock voltage means heat produced will be nearly identical despite higher frequency.
2) Temp vs Heat:
There's a difference between the power consumed, and the local temperature of a component like the CPU. I have an i7-3770K, and usually sits at 30 to 34degC (24degC ambient room temp). That's with a Noctua NH-D14.
Gaming temp-> 50-60degC range
Prime95 max temp-> 67degC
Tjmax is 105degC, so it won't THROTTLE until roughly this temperature (though Intel recommends for optimal CPU life to not exceed approximately 75degC).
3) i7-3770K TIM etc:
Who cares?
You could delid and make this more efficient likely, but its a hassle, may wreck your CPU and frankly unless your CPU is being THROTTLED I wouldn't bother. Sure, running slightly hot (80degC plus sustained) can reduce life expectancy but I wouldn't personally risk breaking it to increase the life span.
4) case fans:
Provided you have at least one intake, and an exhaust near the CPU then increasing fan speed or adding fans won't have a large affect on the CPU temperature. I sped my rear fan to 1800RPM from 700RPM and it made only a 1degC difference in the idle temp.
Summary:
Again, I think it's likely a CPU cooler issue, but also again if your CPU isn't being throttled then you aren't losing any performance.
*What I don't understand though is your "srrtrail.txt" issue. Some points on that:
a) When booting to second drive was that a CLEAN INSTALL of Windows?
b) WHEN does this error occur?
