Help! Brand New 6700k runs at 100degrees starting

[Taisong]

I just built my 6700k with Asus maximum hero Viii and noctua nh-d15 cooler. However , after I finished and booting up my computer , the court temperature goes up to 100 within 3 seconds. Now I don't know where I have gone wrong. I think the cooler touched the cup correctly because when I took it off, it has thermal paste on both sides. So if the problem is not the cooler, what can possibly went wrong ? CPU , MOBO ?
Thank you so much, I really need help !

The only reason that would happen is if you didn't have the CPU cooler heatsink mounted correctly. Even without a running CPU cooler fan, it would take much longer for temps to rise if the heatsink were seated properly. Either too much paste, not enough paste or the mount was not properly fastened.

Just check to see what the voltage is running at if its over 1.3 or so it will run that hot set it back to 1.1 or something, and if thats not it redo the thermal paste and reseat the cooler. screw it on diagonally and dont spread the thermal paste just put a pea sized drop in middle and set cooler on it.

With this temperature , I won't make it to BIOS .

Besides which, at stock settings there shouldn't even be a question of voltage being brought into the conversation. Since this has happened from the start, with no chance to have overclocked anything, there's no chance, at all, that it could be voltage related. Even if it was an issue with too high of voltage settings, it would only present itself under load conditions and would take much longer to reach those temps if the heatsink was mounted correctly, was pasted properly and the fan was working.

Make sure you have applied no more than about half a chocolate chip worth of thermal paste, that the backplate is firmly, but not too firmly, attached, and that the mounting brackets on all four side are fully seated. It's very easy to not mount the cooler correctly or overlook something. Take it apart, re-read the instructions, look at a few online video tutorials of installing that cooler, clean your CPU lid and heatsink base with thermal paste and start again.

Also, make sure you removed the plastic protective slip from the heatsink base. Usually they come with one, similar to the protective plastic you see that comes applied over the plastic on displays and televisions.
