Hi, I have an Intel I7 3770K with a ID cooling SE 913X. My problem is that the temperature rises up to 85 ºC with 100% cpu use (prime 95 stress test). I chanched the thermal paste and tryed again. It got worse (evidently a cheap paste) so I put back the id TP that comes in the box (it has enough for 2-3 uses). All this without OC, if I increase the multiplier from 39 to 42 the temp gets to 94 ºC, so I didn't keep it that way. I also configurated the fan of the cooler to get to 100% speed when reaching 75 ºC and linked 2 case fans ( front -> imput and Back-> output) to work similar to the cooler one and get a linear stream of air through the cooler.
I really don't know what to do, everyone says that the normal temp is about 60 ºC, but i'm faaaar away. At this very moment is summer here, the ambiental temperature is about 29 ºC.
Any clue?

Intel CPU's are best tested on the Prime95 version 26.6 becouse this version does not run AVX instruction sets. AVX pushes the CPU a lot and heats the CPU. Intel recomend 26.6 for testing. So long as you test with Prime95 26.6 and RealBench and throw a run of CinebenchR15 and the CPU stays below 80 degrees C you will be okay especially if this is primarily used for Gaming as in games it will rarely reah even 60 degrees C..

I'm using the latest one, 29.4 . I can't use that version, it seems not compatible with windows.
Why do you recommend that version?
