Hi Guys

I recently installed Corsair H60 2013 edition liquid cooler on my Rig with radiator fan blowing air from outside onto radiator at back of case.
Before Overclocking , with stock settings on proccy , I ran stress test with prime95 software , I am getting following temperatures at idle and load :

Idle : 34-36 C
Load : 72-74 C

individual core temps varying a lot ...........Core 0 temp is around 62 and others core 2 & 4 are at 70 C at full load.

Ambient Temperature should be around 26-30 C

These readings were almost similar to intel stock cooler. Now i am worried abt overclocking more .
I have used preapplied TIM .

My Config:

NZXT Gamma with 4 fans

1 bottom front intake 60-80 CFM
1 botton side intake 50 CFM
1 radiator fan back intake 60 CFM
2 top exhuast outtake (90 CFM + 60 CFM)

All fans are 120 mm LED Coooler master or nzxt fans


Intel i5 3570 K
Asrock z77 extreme 4
Radeon HD 7870 Tahiti LE
8 GB samsung RAM
1 SSD + 3HDD combo
Corsair TX 650V2


Are these temp normal or I should Reapply TIM ? ( I have Noctua NT-H1 tube lying around ....)

Is my Case Fan intake / outake configuration correct ? I am trying to avoid dust in my case and create positive air flow. ?

Also Need some Beginners Overclocking advice for my rig.?

Thanks

No overclocking?
What's the ambient??
Unless the ambient is 50C (which is very unlikely), there's a problem.

Reapply TIM and check whether H60 is properly over your processor.
If everything is ok, then submit you H60 for RMA.
