Hi! Just tested my new 4770k with OCCT and it gets to 73c temperature with Cooler master Hyper 212 Evo on board, I use zalman stg2 thermal paste and my cpu works on 3,5Ghz (in occt test). Is this temperature normal for this CPU? I'm worried if I decide to OC it to 4,2-4,5 will temp go up to 90? Thanx

There is a problem here in that a 4770K's maximum recommended temperature is 72.72°C (http://ark.intel.com/products/75123). I recommend it does not reach 90 as that is way over safe. Find out where the problem is. It could be the Evo or the paste that's bad. Keep us posted.

Cheers.
