Hey guys, I have a cooler master 110, with the front fan installed, and a stock intel heatsink, before OCing it I wanted to make sure it was doing ok at stock speeds, is ~43c at idle bad? what should I expect it to get to during a game like battlefield 4?

are you on the stock cooler?

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

Sounds normal for stock cooler. It will be on hot side during CPU heavy gaming, but won't overheat. Stock coolers are designed to keep CPU cool under load while running with stock settings.

43c is pretty decent I'd think for how small that case is as @dragoon20005 says check if you can fit the cooler master Gemini in your case I've use one with an elite 130 case and it fitted fine it should provide more than enough cooling for a G3258 as its got a ridiculously low TDP my brothers is oc'd to 4.2ghz and while stress testing it only goes up to around 65c with a tiny cooler master hyper tx3 evo so expect about the same or about 5c extra or so

see if you can fit the CoolerMaster Gemini II M4
