cpu temp spiking

[advancedgeek]

after i got my new thermalright ultra 120 extreme while it's under load it seems that the temp of my cpu is spiking like my cpu load temp goes from 45 to 55C and then goes to 45C even if it is still 100% load. But when it is in idle mode it stays at nice 32C.

Ya its going to do that. The TRUE disperses heat very well. So as the CPU actually loads and gets really hot it will stay hot while being loaded but very quickly cools off once the load drops.
