Hello, does anyone know what good temps are for an 8th Gen Core i7-8700K Processor w/ Corsair H100i v2 liquid cooling? This is my first build with liquid cooling, along with first Intel CPU. I'm getting temps under load (Far Cry 5) of 62C or so, with spikes up to 69C, with environment temps at about 21 - 25C. The idle temps (just windows) seem to be pretty good at ~30C or so. There doesn't seem to be any play with the CPU heatsink after the thumb screws were tightened down, just used the included patch of thermal paste. All temp info was collected with HWMonitor.
Any tips anyone has for getting it cooler, or is this about average for this cpu/heatsink combo? Is it worth it to swap the thermal paste?
