Got my idle CPU temp down. Replaced the stock cooler with a CM 212, also cleaned and re-applied the thermal paste. I used the one that came with the new cooler. Probably should be a few degrees cooler still. At this point I don't care though, and I'm too lazy at this point to unscrew the new cooler (which was a bitch to put on) and re-apply some new thermal paste.

I'm just happy that my CPU isn't on fire.

I'll probably eventually take it out and get some arctic thermal paste. For now this is fine for me, my pc was running fine even at those high temps.

Use HWMonitor since that will save your high temps.
