Hey guys, i just changed my radiator and fan configuration to cool my computer a bit better. Im running an i7 4790k at its turbo speed of 4.4ghz and its cooled by a h110 with 2 noctua nfa-14 pwm fans as an intake. then i have 3 exhaust fans so i have negative pressure. (thought i should get the details out of the way first and now my story). I just re applied my IC diamond thermal compound when i re did the config of my case and after the 10 min wait period i idled at around 32.5 degrees with an ambient temp of 20 degrees (all temps are Celsius) thats a pretty high idle temp i find but i understand its a powerful processor and i think it is normal (do you guys). i just ran minecraft and flew threw a world with maxed out settings full screen and everything as a little stress test and when i finished my idle temps rose to about 34-35 degrees! im now 15 degrees above ambient which is pretty warm do you guys think thats normal and i should cope, any recommendations on how to lower my temps
