5000rpm ? is that to much ?

I did re-seat the cooler and added new thermal.... didnt to the trick..

Could it be that the stock cooler is just to weak?
And if i would change it should that do the trick?


This is my 1st pc build and im really stressed that i might have done something wrong...

Thinking of buying Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO if nothing else helps...

Should i try resitting the cooler one more time?

How did you put the paste on?

The fool-proof way is to just put a 4mm to 5 mm pea sized blob of paste in the center of the CPU and let the pressure of the heat sink spread it out for you. This gives a nice even smooth layer.
 
"Should i try resitting the cooler one more time? " - Yes. Your CPU should run at 45C max idle and 65C max gaming. Your CPU fan should then run at 1000rpm.

Your Vcore should be 1.45V max.

If you can't get it to work, then replace the cooler with the CM Hyper 212 evo. But get a friend to double check how you've seated the CPU cooler.
