high temps

[morpheus305]

I got a i7 920 being cooled by a Cooler Master hyper 212+ in a Cooler Master Centurion 5 CAC-T05. I have 40 degree temps on the cores when idle and 75 plus degree temps during full load and this is not overclocked. Was gonna overclock but the temps go north of 80 plus degrees. I opened up the case and cleaned it out but made no difference. Did notice that with side panel off the temps are 13 degrees cooler during full load and 10 degress cooler when idle. Ambient temp is 70-72F degrees. It seems my temps are a lot higher than most and I can't figure out why.

How is your airflow/wiring? I would also check your voltages to see if your motherboard is supplying more than the default, especially if the bios voltage settings are set to "Auto".

The volts are correct and never high. The airflow should be alright, its no different than others peoples builds who bought the same case.
