Hi so should I delid my cpu because I have high temps I have 75c with 4.2ghz vcore is 1.12v?
I used aida FPU test only for temps.

What's your cooling situation looking like? Also, is your PC dusty and how long have you had the PC/CPU?

If you don't know that you should, you probably shouldn't.

I am now a solid delidding fan after dropping massive temps on my 2 CPU's.

Coming from a delidded i7 4770K user, I was able to drop off 15C - 20C after putting a better TIM.
