So I haven't changed anything about my computer since i built it. It's running a Zalman aftermarket cpu cooler that use to idle around 20-30c. Recently it began idling in the high 40's to 50's and now it is hitting the 50's and 60's.
I just reseated the cooler and applied new thermal paste and that did not seem to help as it is idling at 54C as I type this. I don't understand what's going on.

It sounds no different and it's spinning fairly fast. Usually I leave it on it's lowest setting because it cooled fine. I did check exhaust and intake and cleaned out a good part of my computer for dust.
