    Haswell high temps? Case fan setup? CPU heatsink setup error? Some help here!

    Guys, I managed to OC the CPU to 4.3 via ASUS's software. I got 100C! But ASUS software mentions that when using Prime95, Aida etc, you may see extremely high temps. Should I tests this setting with Far Cry 3 for instance and check the temps? Is there apossibility to reach load conditions...

    I think that in my case, Prime95 works differently compared to Intel's utility. I mean rime 95 may use tests that torture the CPU with different kind of operations and despite the fact that it loads to 50-60%, in reality is stressed more.

    Guys I came across a weird situation. I stress test the CPU with intel tuning utility. At 100% load the temps rise up to 68-70. With Prime95 and under 50-60% load, i get temps of 78-80C. I just don't get it :)

    Thank you all for your replies. Yesterday I noticed a terrible mistake. I placed the fans of the CPU cooler to blow downwards instead of upwards into the case! Now I get 3-4 degrees lower temps. Still while running Prime95, my CPU hits 63% load and temps rise to 80C. How can I set Prime95 to...

    Ok guys thanks. I'll give it a good testing before buying anything else like case fans and watercooled CPU heatsink. I will have to also "experiment" with my motherboard settings for overclocking right? Shall i delete motherboard software though?
