The only test that I'm interested is how hot it get's when gaming.
i5 6500 non-k with stock cooler I haven't seen it go above 66c and at idle it's 25c.

Hit 87 tops but was still nice and quiet.
Usually sits at 45-46
Old Skool i7 920 at stock
Corsair H50i BIOS setting on Quiet
Old puter - still good enuff till I save some pennies!
FX-8350, max temp 47c.
I'm guessing at the room temperature, but a safe bet would be just over 20c (it's 17c outside, and noticeably warmer in here). Idle temperature is ~32c today. The cooler is a Prolimatech Genesis Black Series (£15 off ebay!) with just one fan, in the blow-onto-board position (the other half of the cooler sits very close to the exhaust fan anyway, such is the size of the beast). I suspect the key factor here in the low temperature is the case, which is like a wind tunnel. The case fans are all pwm, and I reckon that the temperature would come down even lower with 3-pinners installed.

My machine is obviously not made to run the latest versions of prime. In real life scenarios the CPU stays much cooler.
I could get better results with a water cooling solution but I didn't decide for one, yet.
Warm enough to keep the case spiders happy :-)
