i have a zalman heat sink [not sure of the exact model but it was top rated at the time], unfortunately there was not a single hyper 212 in site as that would have been my first pick but cooler master was in short supply when i did my build.
i have applied thermal paste a few times [IC Diamond 7] to try and get back to normal but it doesnt seem to help. my idle temps were high 20s low 30s for the first few months then they steadily got warmer until now when they are idling in the high 40s. i still have the same mild OC that i had when i got it. i have to run it at full speed constantly.
when i play borderlands 2 or bf3 it will eventually over heat and shut my system down. i have had issues in the past wear my mobo over volts or OCs itself which i still think is pretty odd
my processor is i5-2500k and its OCed to a measly 4.2ghz, it should be cooling it no problem but it isnt
