I have a stock i7 2600k which, during games of Civilization V is sitting at 90C core temperature, according to Intel Extreme Tuning Utility, towards the endgame. Interestingly lowering the graphical settings did help a bit (to get it down to 90C). This is with only Civilization V running and fans running at maximum rpm (~2000RPM).
I am currently using the stock cooling and have not overclocked the cpu. I looked at suggestions for fans elsewhere on the forum but I do not think the suggested fans (Hyper 212 EVO) would fit within my motherboard because the stock 80mm x 80mm fans are as wide as they can be (with a few cm of room in terms of depth).
The inside of my case
When I bought the computer a few years ago I didn't notice I had bought a uatx motherboard rather than a full sized one which explains limited space. I could get a bigger motherboard but I would prefer not spending the extra money.
If there are any suggestions on fans which would fit in the space available or other solutions to these temperatures it would be much appreciated.
System specs if they are useful:
i7 2600k @3.4Ghz (turbo to @3.8ghz, normally sits @3.61Ghz during games)
8GB G Skill Rip Jaws 2133Mhz
Asus P8P67-M motherboard
MSI GTX 760 2GB
If there is anything I have missed out I'll happily find out and add it.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help.
