Hey guys so I installed my cooler master hyper 212+ so the problem is that i am getting very high temps with my CPU cooler my CPU which is a intel core i7 920 running overclocked at 3675mhz at 1.175vcore , 1.295vvt , 1.5 dram which my ram is rated at

The temps which I am getting are 43 41 44 42 at idle
Under load with intel burn test are 72 71 69 73

These temps are too high for this CPU cooler because I have seen people getting very low temps with this CPU cooler on i7 860 ' s

So if any one can suggest me any method of installing Tim on on CPU because I have never used a htd CPU cooler before

I applied only a small half size of a pea compound on to my CPU

So my full system specs are

CPU Intel core i7 920

Mainboard Gigabyte x58a-ud5

Ram Gskill nq trident 1600mhz cas 9 9 9 24 2t

VGA Sapphire radeon hd 5870 1gb gddr5

Hard drive 500gb WD cavier blue

Power supply cooler master tamer xtreme 650w

CPU cooler cooler master hyper 212 push/pull

Case Coolermaster cm 690 with
Intake
1x120mm front
1x120mm bottom mu
Exaust
2x120mm top
1x120mm back

And my cooler running in push pull

So I have pretty decent air flow through my case so I don't think that can be the problem

The settings I used to active a 3675mhz overclock are

Template for the Gigabye EX58 series:

CPU Clock Ratio – 20

Advanced CPU Features:-
CPU Clock Ratio - 20
Intel (R) Turbo Boost Tech. - enabled
CPU Cores Enabled - enabled
CPU Multi-Threading - enabled
CPU Enhanced Halt (C1E) - enabled
C3/C6/C7 State Support - disabled
CPU Thermal Monitor - enabled
CPU EIST Function - enabled
Virtualization Technology - enabled
Bi-Directional PROCHOT - enabled

QPI Link Speed -

Uncore & QPI Features:-
QPI Link Speed - 36
Uncore Frequency - 17
Isochronous Support - enabled

Advanced Clock Control:-
Base Clock (BCLK) Control - enabled
BCLK Frequency (Mhz) - 175
PCI Express Frequency (Mhz) - 100
C.I.A.2 -
CPU Clock Drive - 700
PCI Express Clock Drive - 700
CPU Clock Skew -
IOH Clock Skew -

Performance Enhance - standard
System Memory Multiplier (SPD) - 1400
DRAM Timing Schedule (SPD) - 8

**The following 5 options need setting for each stick of ram**
CAS Latency Time - 9
tRCD - 9
tRP - 9
tRAS - 24
Command Rate (CMD) - 2

Load-Line Calibration - standard
CPU Vcore - 1.175
QPI/Vtt Voltage - 1.295
IOH Core - auto
DRAM Voltage - 1.5

So these are all the settings I have used so guys can anyone help me

Those temps are fine at that overclock and load- you may have gotten a chip from a "poor" batch. Each batch of processors will perform differently, even at the same class/product number- it's the luck of the draw.

I just installed the same cooler, and my temps are very similar, at just over 3.8 Ghz. What is your ambient temperature? I was at 79 degrees farenheit, or 26 degrees celcius. I do not have a second fan attached to the cooler, but two others wthin about an inch and a half pulling off the exhaust, so that should be almost equal to you.

Did you use the thermal paste that came with the chiller? I was higher than you with that stuff, and lower when I tried IC Diamond: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/forum2.php?config=tomshardwareus.inc&cat=29&post=258835&page=1&p=1&sondage=0&owntopic=1&trash=0&trash_post=0&print=0&numreponse=0&quote_only=0&new=0&nojs=0


If you want to make absolutely sure, fill in the cracks exactly as described above. Make sure the nuts on the bracket are tight.

Or you can go buy a more expensive heat sink.
