Does anyone know the idle temps of a i5-6600K and also when playing games as I want to compare it. Thanks

It depends on the cooler,

With my 6600k and H100i GTX i get around 32 idle and 56 under load.

CPU: i5 6600k OCed to 4.5Ghz @ 1.35v, GPU: R9 390 Nitro, Motherboard: Asus z170-A, CPU Cooler: H100i GTX, RAM: HyperX 2x8 16gb DDR4, PSU: Seasonic x650, Storage: 850 EVO 500gb, WD 1tb blue, Case: H440 White/Black

Is that without any over clock. The cooler is cooler master hyper 103 . what do you mean by load full 100% CPU stress test as my idle is around 30 also. Thanks

Its stock, but when overclock the two temps increase by about 3c and when i mean underload i mean 100% stress test for about 15 minutes.

However i have a custom fan curve on my H100i GTX which makes it super quite.

Oh okay sovif I was to overclock I should be around the 60 mark . thanks and what is the best speed for this CPU when overclocked

I've gotten mine to 4.6ghz with 1.36 volts however im pretty sure i won the silicon lottery, so i'd try to do 4.4ghz with 1.35 volts as a start and see how far you can push it.
