Hi there,

Recently bought an entry level H55. I've installed it on an i5 4670k. I changed the thermal paste and i'm using Mx4. My idle temps hover around 35º ish and under load it gets to 60º. Currently the Fan is pulling the air through the Rad. Isn't this a bit high even for an entry level cooler?

I was thinking of getting another fan to push air through the cooler. Any ideas would help

Nope, the temps are totally fine, a Prime95 stress test for couple hours would clear things out, the temps should remain less than 75C. Current temps seem totally fine to me. Don't expect lesser idle temps, liquid coolers won't provide you that. They mainly help with load temps.
