I just finished installing a hyper 212 evo on my new 8350. I have 34c idle and 51c stressed with prime95(stock clocks). I also used the stock thermal compound. Are these temps good? Because by looking around i saw people with 20-25c idle with these specs. Can the compound make a big difference?

I have an asus sabertooth.

I also may have used more paste tham I should, it may have spilled a little around the edges, can it reach inside the socket? Thanks in advance.
