Currently using i5-3570k 3.8Ghz
my old cpu cooler thermalright silver arrow sb-e at idle is only 30-35degree and after i change my cpu cooler to h60, reapplied my thermal paste(rice grain size) and the idle temp is higher than ever. it's around 60 degree idle and tested playing game at full load, it goes up to 100 degree. i tried reseating it 3 times and still the temperature is the same. the 4th time i reseat it. the temp drop to 46-50 degree. is my cpu cooler defective or is the thermal paste not enough?
