CPU heat can be caused by not cleaning with alcohol?

Rooby_RM · Jul 24, 2016

I have a problem. I have a 4670k and in full load temps reachs 65/66 degrees- cooler CM Hyper212 EVO.

When i`ve changed the stock cooler with Hyper, i don`t cleaned the cpu with alcohol, only just with a cotton bud. May be this a cause that CPU reaches high temps,or the heatsink may be broken ?

PS: With stock cooler, temps were never above 60.

Thank you for help

I would take the cooler off, clean the CPU with the alcohol, reapply new thermal paste, and then test to see the temps. That'll tell us where the problem lies.

The problem is that before 4670k i had an amd phenom that doesn`t exceed 60 degrees with different hyper 212 evo , and from the vents that take the air out from the case i felt the heat getting out, and now the air that get out at 65 degrees is normal.

Give cleaning the Cpu a shot. It might solve your problem. If not then the cooler is the culprit and we can analyze further from there.
