High temperatures

I'm trying to keep my 4930K cooled using a corsair H110 cooler. However my average temperatures at idle are around 34 degrees celsius while the highest peaked at 42. I first tried to re install my top fans so that air enter through the front and exist the back and top. The temperature didn't even budge a bit and stayed in the same range, maybe a bit higher. I used thermal paste on the CPU like I'm suppose to and nothing is blocking the vents. Is there something else I can do to keep it cool?

 

Does this chip normally run this hot? I won't even try to overclock unless I can keep it cooler.

42 is cool for a cpu anything under 80c is fine so go push that cpu to its limits. BTW you wont get in cooler with out a bigger loop or liquid nitrogen or dry ice.

Ok cool, I was being told by a co-worker that it wasn't normal to have those temps and it shouldn't be that high no matter what.

It's abnormally low actually, very good temps for the system.
