Thanks for the suggestions.

As for my fan setup, I have two Sunon 80mm in the front taking air in, one over the hard drive also blowing air in, 2 in the rear blowing air out, and the PSU which is also blowing air out at the top.

I'm using the stock TIM (the stuff on the HS) which came with the processor.

Are the temps high enough where it would be worth it to take out everything and wipe off the TIM, and replace the HSF? Or should I just wait about a year until I upgrade the processor?

Also, what about the motherboard temps? Are they okay and would they go down if the processor temp goes down?
