I have recently bought A CM hyper 212 X instead of a EVO because Of its New upgraded form.. :p
How Much temps Should I Normally Get??
My CPU is i7 3770 ...
Thanks

Reading CPU temperatures is a bit of an art. There are two types of temperature sensors: Socket and Core. Certain programs mis-read which are which.

Try to get ahold of a couple different programs (CoreTemp, Speedfan, HWMonitor, and, if you have a Radeon GPU, AMD Overdrive) and cross reference them to see if you can figure out which is which. CPU Core temperatures will display funky, weird, often sub-ambient temperatures at idle, but will be more accurate at load. CPU Socket will be vice-versa, they will be accurate at load, but will display 5-15C higher at load.

We Americans are very interested in seeing how this next generation of the often-lauded Hyper 212 performs. Any additional information you can give (Case and its fan...

I'm Currently Running Prime95 And In In Place Large FFts I'm Getting 60-62 C Highest Temperature ... Is This Good And In Idle i get About 40-45 C... :/

Im getting Those Temps in Most Of the Cases :/
And I would Like To Ask is that Waht Are the Thing Above The cooler...The orange colored
Spike Looking Thing....Because There Are Like 8 Spikes And Some Of my Got Smashed I mean Not Broken But A little Smashed ...Will This Be A problem ???
 
Are you referring to the ends of the copper heatpipes? They should have some uniform "dents" which, I think, are a type of crimping. Post a picture, if you can, and we can tell you if it is supposed to look like that or not.

Anyway, 62C maximum temperature sounds okay.
