I just installed my new Noctua NH-D14. So far I am pleased with the difference in results, but I want to make sure they're normal. Idling at the desktop I have about 30 degrees C on the Core, and 10-15 C on the socket. I didn't feel like downloading prime95 so I just ran OBS max settings, rendered a video, and launched open a game until I hit 100% CPU usage. My socket didn't go past 35 C and my CPU (core) didn't go past 45 C. These are good temperatures to expect from this cooler I assume?
