Have you got any case fan?
Re-apply good thermal paste?

My usual pick for good value heatsink will be cooler master 212 evo

Or cheaper arctic cooling freezer pro rev 2

I have 3 case fans one on back as exhaust front as intake side as intake thanks for links U think paste and new fan will help

I used to intake from front/ side, exhaust at back. I don't know if that make any difference.

Try unplugging that side fan and see what happens.. I know with the position on my case that intake fan would be doing the opposite of what I want
