Erratic Temperature readings

[FishTea]

I recently got my h100i for my 3770 and i thought that i will stabilize the temps 

 

but it does not.

 

 

my temps jumps from 47~60c in idle and around 70's in load ...

 

may be i got a bad chiP?

 

help?

Remount and reapply thermal paste.

Also, what are you using to check temps?

Make sure the cpu block is firmly tighten down, sounds like cooler isnt making proper contact.

With such high idle temps it's almost always caused by a bad mount. I would suggest to remount to see if they will improve but if they still continue you might want to look into the washer mod, its a fairly common thing on certain motherboards which cause a lack of mounting pressure:
