My rig:
CPU- i5 2500k
MB- Asus p8z68-vprogen3
CPU Cooler- Corsair h80i
GPU- EVGA GTX 580 sc
Ram- G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
I'll make this story short. Built this rig around feb 2012. Issues ever since. My cores would lock up. Called Asus, they said CPU is bad replace it. So I did. I kept getting BSOD. Called and they said it was Memory issues. (which it really was). Replaced it. Now my computer is finally up and running. Then I notice that my cpu is running hot, like 98C. Called and they said that stock intel fans suck... which they do. So saved up some money got a h80i. Well... my pc runs fine, but still the same temperature issues. At idle 40C. When on a load around 95C. I pretty much built this pc to game and spent a lot of money I didn't really have on it. I don't want to have it hitting this temp. What can I do?
