Cpu temps too high? H100i and a 4690k.

[LexusLFA]

Currently running a 4690k at 4.6GHz at 1.27V. Idle temps are around 28-33 C but load temps while playing games such as dragon age inquisition, assassins creed unity or GTA 5(cpu heavy games) average around the mid 70s. Not as intensive games such as Advanced warfare average mid 50s low 60s. I'm curious if i should reseat my h100i and if so which thermal compound should i use? Ambient temp is around 26 C. Any help would be appreciated.

Nope, those temperatures are fine. With an overclock of 4.6 @ 1.27v, that is around what i would expect. You don't need to change anything as you generally want to keep intel processors under 80C.

In my head the temps make sense as well, but then how is this possible?

1.4V and 4.8GHz with a max of 71C?.

That are many factors that go into exactly what temps you get. Room temperature, thermal paste, fan configuration, and case size to name a few. I wouldn't get to caught up in comparing your temps to others as the setups are almost always going to differ.

Yea not sure why i went crazy with the voltage...did some testing at 1.95V and its stable at 4.6 while only touching 69 as a max. I used to hit 86....but problem solved.
