    I think the problem is with your thermal compound. Arctic creamique is for subzero cooling. Use arctic silver 5 instead. Or else use arctic cooling mx-4.

    I use mx-4 myself with the stock cooler. Apparently, 212 evo is huge for my casing. :(

    I get 35-37C idle and 55-65C depending on the load.

    are u sure mchn:shocked:

    for air cooling mchn
    didn't know that it's for sub zero cooling:eek::shocked:

    It doesn't officially say that it's for subzero coolig. But most people recommend it for that. Like I said, they say it performs best in subzero conditions.

    Try AS 5 or mx-4 and see if there is any difference. Also make sure that cooler is installed correcly. :)

    Btw what's your cpu?

    its quad core q9300

    Oh didn't notice that the first time.

    Before using mx-4 I also used to apply a generic thermal compound. I noticed about 5C drop when I switched to mx-4. Also during stress tests it used go to 90C+ but now it's in the 75-80C range.

    First apply a normal paste. If there's any considerable drop try as 5 or mx4
