Works very well for computers and accessories

I5 CPU replaced with I7-3770K and old paste replaced with MX-4. Just use a humble Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus with 1 fan. Overclocked to 3.7 GHz, the idle is now 36 C, and when running Prime95 at 100%, the CPU stays stable at 56 C. A 3.7GHz i5 will run Prime95 at 100% at 68C, a nice improvement over the MX-4. Recommended. Edit: Increase OC to 4.2GHz. Still idling at 36°C, 100% CPU at 63°C. MX-4 and Cooler Master work great.
