I got a new CPU/Mobo combo a while ago. I got the i7 2600k. Quite a nice upgrade from my old processor. I used the H100 I had on my last cpu. I re-applied some new thermal paste to it. I used some Artic Silver 5. Temps arent really what I expected them to be. Gaming they hit around the high 40s, idle temps are low-mid 30s and its been in the 70*s(F) here lately. I understand its a quad core with 8 threads and all and Intel usually runs a bit warmer. But I have seen people with OCs of around the low 4s with this cooler and they have temps around mine. Seems like mine are a bit high. Was Artic Silver 5 a bad choice with the H100?
What are some of your guys temps with the H100 and i7 like?
