Yeah it sure is.
Here's an IBR High run after putting on a Hyper 212 EVO cooler.



It was idling at 37-38C, now in the mid 20's.

I idle there with mine. I wonder if I need to re-seat the cooler or it just because it's so hot here. It is about 30C in the room where I have my PC.

If you've nothing to do, reapplying the paste may help some. You're only 7-8C above ambient, so I don't think that's too bad. My room at the moment is 21-22C.

Yeah you're right, I'm just talking myself into getting a water cooler Now that I got a chip I can OC I want to play more

Looking very good so far Gary, nice winsat score and a 7.7 WEI score for the CPU at stock speed?

I think you are going to have a good time with your new setup.

Paul.

@Britton30, thanks for your input, and yes have a good time for your new setup!!:)

Ah ha, a method to your madness. I'll push this a bit to see how hot it get before I decide on a closed loop. A full custom loop is too $$$ for me.

Looks like it is going well there mate that IBT is that something I could try on the Sandy Bridge to see how mine scrubs up?. I am running an Artic Freezer 13 Pro on it at the moment and often wondered how good this cooler actually is.
