Became bored and began screwing around with my CPU overclocking and such...

I'm currently sitting at 4.3Ghz @ 1.200v.
I was running IntelBurnTest and then Prime95, and it looks like my temps are a little on the high side. Temps were hovering around 80, maxing out at 83-84. I don't have a ton of experience with this chip but i doubt that it should be that high on such a low voltage. Especially since i have a Hyper 212eVo.
Idle ~40
What do you guys think? should i try re-applying thermal paste or are these temps acceptable? I've never really tracked them much on this CPU.

any help is appreciated. thx

That's quite high indeed. My 3570k is at 1.3v running at 4.5 and with the 212 evo prime maxs at just under 80. I would reapply the 212
