Hi all, I've searched everywhere on the net and can't find any simple answers.
Here's the set up;
4770k @ 4.7ghz w/ 1.31v = 70 to 80*C
asus sabertooth
noctua d14
prime95
room temp = 10 to 15*C
This is my first 'real' HSF
Question:
Is it normal for my heatsink to be at around 25*C only?? I've stuck my MBs temperature probes randomly along the heatsink and I can touch it without feeling any heat anywhere.
From what I vaguely recall from school, the heatsink should be similar temperature to the cpu so that the huge fans can dissipate the heat?
