I've just recently assembled a new computer, and the CPU (in the UEFI BIOS), reaches over 70C, and either stays there, or drops down to ~40C. I've checked the placement of my cooler (stock) and thermal paste, and they all seem in working order.
Specifications:
- Intel Core i7 2600K
- Corsair 650W (HX)
- ASUS P8P67 PRO
- Anything else you need?
Other than buying a new cooler/paste, what other solutions could there be, to getting this down to an acceptable temperature?
