Just put together an i7 DO @4.2 for my man!
i'm using a spire thermax eclipse II cooler. i did notice that when you tighten the 4 spring bolts up, the mother board flexes.

I'm getting 42 41 43 42 idle.
On max with prime95 with both fans @2200rpm,
I'm getting 85 84 83 82

would you say this is abit high ?
if so, what would u recomend that wouldn't be far off the Noctua NH-D14 but half it's size.
if them temps are not good, i'll send it back to amazon.
im using IC diamond paste. done the line.

Cheers.:)
 
Seems about right to me. If you want something better but that's not too big, try the Thermalright Venomous X with some 140mm fans.
