Hi all,

As the title says my i7700k idel temp are 60-65 degree celcius.
I am using a Hyper evo 212 cooler from my old build.
I live in a fairly hot place, my ambient temp is around 28c.

Should I change my cooler?

Case:Cooler master masterbox 5

1x240mm fan and 2x 120mm fan in front

1x120mm fan on top 1x120mm fan at back

No overclocking

not really checked the load temps but if idle is this high then my guess would >95c

remounting with fresh thermal paste dropped my temps to 39c, oddly after placing the sides of case the temps became 60-65c again...I then realized may be the nuts on the back of the mother board that the heat sink might be loose, so I tightened them...vola 39c again!!
