I think about stock cooler had its run, i i get 44-50 degrees in idle, MB 30-40 ish degrees in idle ,i kept the case open turned the AC on a bit to cool it respread the older thermal paste til i get more. I know im better off saving to a new CPU build I will when I get my tax return money :). Im unsure what to get i5 8400, ryzen 1600,1600x for 1080p 60hz gaming only. ( but thats another story :p). Just lookin for cpu cooler /heatsink to last me next 2-3 months that could possibly OC from 3 to 3.2.or even 3.4 ghz . Cooler within 10-20 range dont really wanna spend 30ish on 212 evo. If im gonna rebuild in next 3 months.. I already ordered some arctic 5 will see if that help much, I guess my Radic Shack cheap thermal paste i put over a yr ago wasnt up to doin the job for 2 yrs plus LOL .. any cheap CPU coolers would be appreciated :)
