Cpu: i5 3470 non K -oc'd 3.8Ghz with AsRock Extreme Tuner Utility
MB: AsRock z77Pro3
Cooler: Zalman CNPS 11 something
Case: CM Storm Sniper Black
------------------------------------------
Test: Prime95
Room temperature : 29.5 degrees

Temperatures (after 115 minutes of testing) :
------------------------------------------
No errors or warnings showed up on Prime95 ... But i'm wondering, isn't 70 degrees a bit too hot? Should i change the cpu cooler? If so, what would you recommend?

In games it never reaches 60degrees, max I've seen it go while oc'd is 57.
Thanks

70C is still within safe temperatures. You're fine.

Those temps are completely fine, you could even OC a little higher if you'd like. :)
