System is in my sig.. I recently switched my board out for a new B3 version. When I removed my H70, I had to clean off the stock thermal compound (it supposedly had some pretty good Shin-Etsu). I used Arcitc Silver ArctiClean 1 & 2 then 100% isopropyl alcohol to clean off the H70 and the CPU. When I put the H70 back on, I used Arctic Cooling MX4.

My CPU (all cores / threads) have been at 100% utilization now for 1.5 hours. The ambient temp. in the room my PC is in is ~25C.

AIDA64 is showing these temps. right now:
Core 1: 52C
Core 2: 53C
Core 3: 58C
Core 4: 52C

Are these temps. too high?

What prog are you using to check your temps? I need to know so I can watch my temps.

After a little research it seems thats a healthy temp to be running at. So I think you are ok. Im not a pro but thats what a few sites said.

I'm using AIDA64 to monitor my temps.. I got similar responses on other forums regarding these temps. so I'm feeling better about it now.

You're at least 15 - 20 degrees away from the point where you should be concerned.
