Okay got some temp questions.
I run a i5-2320 with an Coolermaster Hyper 101 heatsink/fan. trying to figure out what are reasonable temps. idle they sit at around 38-40c. my case is a DiabloTek EVO using only the 4 120mm fans included. 1x front(intake) 2x top(outtake) 1x rear(outtake) the Fan for the hyper 101 sits at 100%(its not the PWM version) when playing new games. Kingdoms of Amalur/BF3/MW3/Skyrim temps hover around 50-51c. what are the max temps? are these okay? really new to Sandy bridge stuff so still kinda trying to get a handle on it all. running prime95(all stock, no OC) temps get up to 66c and hover there at 100% load. graphics card idles at 30c and maxes at around 58c(running a MSI N550gtx-ti Cyclone OC) not worried about those temps at all there good. :)
temps checked via SpeedFan and CoreTemp.
Thanks.

Around 40 degrees idle could be lower, but it's completely tolerable. As far as your load temps (50-51), those are completely fine, you don't need to worry about them. And if you're running prime95 at around 66 degrees I would say that's pretty good as well, considering your CPU is at its limit.

Try flipping your top fans to intake and see if that changes your temps. I suspect that the 3x120mm fans near your CPU may be starving the CPU cooler of air.
