I swapped the stock cooler for the Hyper 212 Evo a year or so ago and it worked fine - or what I thought was fine for it.
My idle temps are sitting at ~50C (stock speed) and I haven't checked under load but I'm afraid it reaches 60's. (Tested with Speed Fan, CPU-Z and HW-Info, each gave almost same temps)
Case is open and airflow isn't obstructed, tested after cleaning the cooler and reapplying the thermal paste, just don't know what can even go wrong.
