Does anyone have an i7 3820 with the Coolermaster 212 EVO cooler? What are your temps like?

Seems pretty normal.

I've got a i7 3820 with a 212, my temps are around the same just abit lower (30° min)

I have mine overclocked to 4.2ghz and i get temps around ~25 idle at and at full load, i hit about ~48.
3
what is it that puts you at full load?

A stress testing program called Prime95. It's mainly used to check if your overclock is stable and things like that.

Psst, he's the mod round these parts. He knows this hit.

Not actually. You can see the mods listed on the sidebar.
From the past builds he's posted though, I'm inclined to believe he "knows this hit" as well.

try IBT on high.

What cooler and case?
1
Coolermaster 212 with a push/pull in the XION-980 I have 5 case fans also.
2
Oh yeah you'd see some pretty good results then. Mines only got one fan and my case isn't very high air flow (Corsair 550D).
2
Ya, I've very particular about my airflow but this case definitely fulfills my needs. And for a $30 air cooler, it performs pretty well. That's the only thing stopping me from going to liquid cooling. Not needed, yet.

Same processor, same cooler and same case, i'm getting the same temps.

Interesting...my processors ran at 95-100% while encoding video for a about 10 minutes and my temps never made it above 40.
1
But are you overclocked?
1
what are you doing to stress it?
3
I haven't actually ran a benchmark program but I just ran a few games at the same time plus things like Photoshop. I had the cores working at ~90% for a while.
1
it's not too bad, to be honest, not for that cooler, enjoy.
2
Just use the Intel processor diagnostic utility.

What does that do?
1
Everything that the name implies

Please take note that some other peoples temps may be better because of their ambient temps.
2
Ambient temps? Sorry I don't know what that means.

Room temp. It also determines what temps you get. Some people may live in cooler places than others which in turn affects how low or how high your temps can be.
2
Oh right. That would make sense considering I do live in Australia and my room is pretty hot.

Eh they arent mind blowing temps but not horrible. It's possible you used a little too much thermal paste or something. It is a decent cooler for ivy bridge but maybe it lacks the raw thermal dissipation to keep sandy bridge-E "cold"

Considering it's in a corsair 550D case (which isn't very airflow orientated) and I live in Australia I expected them to be a little higher.

Im pretty sure thats what youre going to get with the 212 evo.
