Hey everyone!

I have recently acquired a Hyper 212 EVO and tried mounting it. However, when I do a quick prime 95 test after I boot, one of the cores jump up to 95+ and I immediately shut it down. I removed it and noticed the TIM was well spread the first time around minus the corners so I applies just a tad more in the center, mounted it down tight as I could and tried again. A few degrees less on idle but still around 95 ish on load.

This is my setup.

I noticed the first page mentioning different tim application methods and such. Although I'm sure it yields better results, I'm hard pressed to think that NOT choosing that method results in me having such high temps.

I've got a little wiggle room to rotate my cooler left or right by a few minor degrees, something that apparently a lot of people have to deal with so I don't think its that. I know Haswell runs hot but there's just no way it should be running this hot. I'm simply running stock with 3.9 turbo. Haven't even started to overclock anything.

One thing you never want to do, is remove your cooler and re-mount it on the TIM that was previously applied. That will introduce microscopic air pockets that will hamper thermal transfer.

But your problem seems to indicate a poor contact between heat sync base and the CPU's heat spreader. The fact that you can move your cooler left/right or twist it would indicate that it is not pressing firmly to the CPU. Did you tighten the mtg. screws all the way? Are you using the correct parts for the 1150 socket?
Here is a pictorial guide you may want to look at: http://www.overclock.net/t/1322128/guide-installing-cooler-master-hyper-212-evo-plus-x-on-sockets-775-1150-1155-1156-1366-2011-am2-am3-fm1-fm2

I think I've confused a lot of people with the lack of information on that particular part. I did remove it once to check the spread of it. Then I cleaned it and reapplied with tad more than before and then reapplied. Also, if you check the particular cooler, it seems that everyone has this slight wiggle. They say that to disregard it because its generally an issue for those using some of the socket types for Intel.

It turns out that the auto default clocks and voltages was too much. At load, it ramped up to 1.344 on CPU-Z which is entirely too high so I put in a manual voltage and it hit a max load of 83C in Prime 95 and, in-game on various games, no more than 63 degrees. I'll be removing the cooler though to apply via three very thin lines or perhaps two and then remounting the cooler.

Well, I have 2 of the CM 212 EVO coolers. One on an Intel board and one on an AMD board. Neither one 'wiggle' when installed properly. In fact, it takes a tremendous effort to get it to even twist a degree or two in either direction. But the main thing is, you have your temp situation solved.
