What cooler do you used?

1. What kind of cooler are you using?
2. Do you overclock your CPU?
3. If you do overclock, what's the VCore are you using?

lol my 4790k hit 100c when rendering my 3d scene with stock cooler.

changed to hyper212x it dropped to 80c but still damn hot

Get a water cooler bro, it seems that air cooler has its own limit haha. Go for a Cooler Master or NZXT 2 in 1 solution lol

Im using water cooler

Haha I am talking about doggydogg's case though. For your case, did you check if your chassis has enough ventilation or not (like air flow and stuff), but usually I hardly hear of this temp unless you overclock your cpu lol

did u also check if your thermal paste is properly applied?

i googled and looks like the Tj max is 100'C...so it should be ok for your temp to be around 80+ degC ...still got some buffer...

can i hv the link please

Try install core temp?
