Update, so I replaced the Cooler Master Hyper 212 evo with a ARCTIC Freezer 34 eSports DUO. While the temps now are a few degrees lower prime95 still broke 100 celsius on a couple cores. Not on all like the previous cooler. I played FPS games for 3 to 4 hours last night and HWMonitor never went beyond the 80s for temp. Looking at the temps right now the MAX temp over the past 15mins just surfing the web is 60 degrees.
I ran a Heaven Benchmark and a 3DMark stress test. Highest temp 75 degrees celsius
While not perfect I think I'm good to go as long as I don't run the prime95 torture test. What do you think?
Hi,
I just installed the cpu in the subject. I'm not sure I put the heatsink on correctly. I've booted up and looking at HWMontoring
Depending on what core the temp ranges from 35 to 50 degrees celcsius.
Is this a good temp for idle and should they be changing constantly within those 5 degrees.
Thanks!
