hello everyone my first time here, i cleaned my system and applied thermal paste on both my cpu and graphics card I really don't see any improvement maybe just one or two degrees less than before, I'm afraid I didn't installed thermal paste correctly?
I have a i5 4590 and my temps according to msi afterburner are between 37 and 41c idle when gaming they jump to 56-58c
my gtx 660ti amp temps are 35-37c idle and gaming (battlefield 4) they jump to 56-58c accordingly
what do you guys think?

Yup, more than fine. My 3570k runs at 76c under stress testing oc'd to 4.5Ghz @ 1.3 vcore.
I had an evga 660ti FTW+ edition which was running (till recently when i got an R9 390) at high 70's for over 2 years.
