29c room temp. after leaving it as is seems to idle around 38c now at stock.

just for the fukk of it I just OC'd my i5 from 3.4 to 4.0...
Performance gain is definitely noticeable but is 42c too high for idle temp?

What CPU are you running? It might run high. Mine idles at around 31c at a 4.5ghz overlcock, but I'm on an Ivy Bridge (which run cool, in general).
What were your temps before the overclock? Mine only went up like 2c when idling
My dog can take it I set the ac to kick in at 80 degrees when I leave for work.
I believe if you're under 85 on a full load on prime95 you should be good. the max temp is closer to 100c on many of these Intel chips.

apparently it's a little high, but i think your chipset runs hot, in general

Are you liquid cooling?
How did/do you sign up???? I NEED to play this

Of course, sign ups were like a month ago so IDK if it will still get you in.

Nah no liquid cooling...
I got some cooler master joint...
I wasn't planning on ocing...I only tried cuz I was told no need to play around with the voltages at 4.0..I turned up the fans a bit though....
Lol think I signed up during E3 actually
I just have a shytty history of not getting in alphas/betas. I really wanted to get in The crew beta and I signed up literally as the site was announced lol
So all the bullshyt software that came with this Windows Movie Maker probably put some malware on my system.I think you can do that with Windows Movie Maker
shyt changed my default search engine in all of my browsers and now I keep getting a certificate error when I try to access PayPal

Was in that Crew beta...I've always had good luck getting into alphas and beta's honestly...but The Crew beta...I didn't care too much for it but the soundtrack was crazy dope. Muhfukkas had Ante up, What Happened to That Boy, Nasty - Nas, Dillatroit, Deadly medly by Black Milk Royce and Elzhi, Popular Demand, and some other heat rocks I can't even remember. Hadn't heard such a strong rap station in a game in a while. They had their ears to the underground as well as some classics.
The gameplay was aight but I didn't fall in love with it like I do other racers. Plus it only took like 50 minutes to drive across the whole country.

Can anybody help me out with this?

Really depends on your ambient temps amongst other things but 42c isn't bad. However, if all you did was change the multiplier then your mobo is increasing the voltage automatically and most likely overcompensating for the clocks. Figure out how much voltage your system is using and if its stable at said voltage, then start decreasing it in steps of 2 until you become unstable. Once unstable increase it by 1 step until you're stable again.
