Okay big difference here

CPU utilization
Maximum 98%
Average 63%

Core frequency 4.2ghz

These results are with no Turbo Boost.

Switch those fans around as recommended :)

What video card are you using?

Should I just flip one or both of them in the front? And will I have to re wire them? They're extremely easy to get to.
A Asus Dual Fan OC 1070, which runs amazing!

Flipping them is as simple as unscrewing them and then flipping them then screwing them back on. No wiring changes needed at all.

What do you think of the results of both tests at 45 minutes a piece that I posted previously? One with Turbo Boost on and the other with it off?

I think you should flip those fans, and re-enable turbo. Until you do that the numbers mean nothing. Even as things stand you will not damage your CPU, 75c for brief periods is not dangerous with intel CPUs but if you can get that down by improving your airflow in your case I would go ahead and do it.

Okay Xaltar I will give it my best shot and let you know how it all goes. I may even reposition my tower because it's in a rather tight spot underneath my desk, so I'll reverse the front fans and move the tower and let you know on here how it goes.
