Temperatures of the CPU
Think about this: Intel recommends using a cooler that directs air downward toward the CPU and memory. The cooler you pick only cools the CPU while ignoring the voltage regulators that supply power to it. A good example of a cooler meeting Intel's TAC 2.0 standards is the Noctua NH-L9x65, which follows a thermally optimized chassis design (1).pdf
