That depends on ventilation, air flow, dust level, ambient room temperature, thermal paste application, the material of your case, etc. I cannot give you an accurate estimate without knowing your maximum temps under load with Prime95.

don't have it together yet so I cant say what it will run at lol my house stays at about 65 Fahrenheit I have an 80mm exhaust fan and I will be using the Corsair CX500 power supply which has a 120mm fan. I have room in the front for another 80mm fan but was told that that could cause air flow problems . and I plan on pulling it out to dust atleast 1-2 times a month just to be safe

I should add that I plan on adding a HDD cooler that will actually blow cold air into the case (I might have to make one since I want it to mount in the 3.5" slot
