i7 4770 high tempratures

[ipatman]

Lately i have been planning to upgrade my hardware so i checked what i need.When i checked my CPU temperatures i realised that my CPU had about 85-100c when only chrome and Skype was operating.I have the stock cooler and i am considering to upgrade to liquid cooling but i want to know if it is the cooler's or the CPU's fault.If it is the CPU's fault i would really like some recommendations to maybe fix the problem.
Any help appreciated.

(English is my second language so i may have some mistakes)

Yeah that is not normal at all too have that high of a temp. Unless the stock CPU fan is malfunctioning it is most likely something to do with the CPU. Make sure that you have thermal paste applied. Are you sure it's not on farhinenet setting ?

I haven't changed my thermal paste since i bought my PC (1.5 years ago)and also it was pre built so i have not checked that.The cooler seems to be running at around 1500rpm so it cant be a mulfanction and it is not Fahrenheit.Do i have to apply thermal paste again?

You can reapply thermal paste it won't hurt anything too do that. Your stock CPU cooler should be able to keep unit at stable temperatures, any issues with computer? What tool are you using look at temperature of your CPU?

I havent got any issues lately except from some fps drops but nothing too scary.Iused the HWmonitor to see the temps as well as RealTemp.

Sounds good just double checking that the CPU tool was not an issue. I would reapply thermal paste and insure that your getting proper air flow inside the case. Then go from there.

I believe that the air flow at my case is descent (2 fans in front pushing air in and 2+1 fans at the top and back pushing air out)Also do you think they will change the cpu with warranty?Thank you very much btw.

It is possible depending on how hold it is. I would apply the thermal paste first and go from there. But I would look into your warranty options if you can.

I reapplied thermal paste and now my temps are at about 50-60*c.You are the best thank you!!!
