you can try running fpu aida64 to see the max temp.. the fan rpm also important.

best cpu air cooler for 8940 i guess is soon to be launched thermalright silver soul 135, current available model should be thermalright tr-ta120 ex mini, thermalright ak120 mini, thermalright ts120 mini and it seems plug n' play out of the box.
