I7 6700k package core temp reaching 30c without overclocking

[Allenmessi]

So i just built my 1st computer right here http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Allenmessi/saved/wJHxrH. And i used a h115i to cool the cpu, i like louder pcs and i like to squeeze preformance out, but even before over clocking at stock speeds the temps reach 30 c on idle, and 65c on prime95, 45c on avrage with mx4 thermal paste

Yeah... that's fine. Mine idles between 24-30C. Prime95 put it up to 75C, gaming between 60-65C and I have an AIO. You're good, it has a threshold of about 80C.

yea normal temps.

i have air cooler and prime puts temps in red 90s for me prob minus 10-15c for you

Allenmessi,

Here's the recommended operating range for Core temperature:

80C Hot (100% Load)
75C Warm
70C Warm (Heavy Load)
60C Norm
50C Norm (Medium Load)
40C Norm
30C Cool (Idle)
25C Cool

Idle temperature depends on ambient temperature, power saving features in BIOS and Windows background processes and services.
