[QUOTE=nexusowner;40043962]I'm not sure what your question is, but if you meant this. - I'm running SimCity 5 and Skyrim - I've done that for around 20 - 30 minutes and the heat is still that.

I have a 212+ as well, my idle temps are about 32C, and under load it it maxes at 52C. I also have the CPU overclocked and the voltage upped some, so it's pretty damn good.

And that for only 19 bucks. I'm really satisfied with this CPU cooler, way better than my alloy block CPU cooler, darn thing hit 45c when IDLING.
[QUOTE=Ruzza;40009413]Cooler Master Hyper 212+ Evo is a really good heatsink, it is around $30 too, with 35 euros, you could buy a 120mm fan and make the heatsink a push/pull configuration.[/QUOTE] Thread in a nutshell.

If you've bought the cooler, congratulations, you can close the thread now :)
