Hi all, finally got my 212 Evo in and installed today. Temps seem to be around 45*C while running World of Warcraft. Highest it's gotten is 54*C. Do these sound ok? I know the cooler is installed correctly, I know I put the appropriate amount of Arctic Silver 5. Just wondering if I need to mess with the fan settings in BIOS or not. Thanks.

Well I dont over clock these days but im on a fence these days been amd for a long time but I dont see amd offering much soon other then another apu I have 2 of those now and a fx.
So I have been leaning towards the 4670 myself and dilidding it not to oc but to keep it cool over time a cooler non stressed chip is going to last longer then a hot stressed chip.
Unless AMD pulls a rabbit out of there arse soon after the first of the yr I will be heading over to intel for my next build in my new NZXT WHITE PHANTON CASE.

Yeah, Haswells are the ones people are delidding. Intel really messed up with these. Consumers shouldn't be having to/needing to do that to fix their problems. Although, the people delidding are the ones overclocking. I don't plan to or need to overclock. I'm just always worried about temps on a fresh build. I'm sure everything will be fine and the anxiety will die down after a while.
