Hello, friends ! I recently replaced my stock cooler with a thermalright ts 120m( 212 Evo wouldn't fit in my case :D ) and my temps are:
100% load for 15 minutes: max socket-66C. max package: 59C
idle socket temps are 43-48.
I am using HWMonitor to monitor the temps.
Btw I have 1 case fan in the front (I have 3 more but they are too noisy so I don't use them :D )
The cpu is overclocked to 4.5 Ghz with 22.5 multiplier and I have increased the voltage to 1.4125.
I have no clue of overclocking but I want to get everything from that cpu,
Are those temps high, some advice on overclocking and I want to state that I used thermal paste from the new cooler I bought.

You're cutting it close, but you are still within safe specs. (~72C on the socket, and 61C on the core/package is the maximum limit.)

To help bring some of the temperatures down more, I would install an exhaust fan. Otherwise, leave things as they are.
