Corsair H60 i5 2500k temps

Doesn't matter (IMHO).
54C temperature change with prime95 in a minute with a watercooling setup - something is seriously wrong.
My 2500K OC'd to 4.4GHz takes a few min to get close to 70C.
I'd say the heatsink is not making good thermal contact with the CPU.
Added info: I am using a coolermaster hyper 212+
And yes, I know a heavy OC can easily reach 90C - but A) this is very bad for the lifespan of the CPU and B) should take a lot longer than 60s, especially with a water cooling setup.
Could also be that there is no water flowing/the heatsink on the CPU is full of air.

Do you mean the radiator is mounted to the top of the case?
No, I'd say the issue is directly on the CPU. Either A) bad thermal connection between the CPU and the waterblock, B) waterblock is full of air/not passing water, or C) something internal to the CPU (though very, very unlikely unless it was previously de-lidded) and if it is C - go buy some lotto tickets
I say this because of how fast the temps are climbing. If heat was being taken away from the CPU and going into the water reservoir/radiator it would slowly climb as it takes time to warm up a pound of water and the radiator (even without fans on it) would be just as hot.

He's not using a watercooling setup. He's using a Corsair H60, which performs LESS than a Hyper 212 EVO. The H60 is a pointless and should only be used for aesthetics. You want performance? Go big air (NH-D14, Silver Arrow), Big CLC (H100i, Kraken X60), or custom loop
Reapplied thermal paste and results: idle 34C prime95 first minute 80C, I am thinking maybe its faulty though pump is running at 4k rpm and fan 2k, if not its a total... and I can't return it. Now replaced with my old Scythe Shuriken Rev.B idle 35C prime95 1h 62C (facepalm) also its so silent compared to stock H60 fan even on stress.
I didn't say the H60 was a GOOD watercooling setup, but it is water based and marketed as being one. Can't really call it phase change, air, or anything else.
If you want to suggest a better name for that class of cooler. I'm all for it.
