I7 8700K 72ºC AIO Evga CLC 280?

[agustinspadafora02]

My i7 8700k is having very high temperatures having an AIO (EVGA CLC 280), it reaches up to 72º doing Stress CPU with Aida64. While I saw that other people with an AIO of 120MM reaches 65º, which might cause it to reach 72ºC? The thermal paste is an MX-4

72c is about right, give or take 5c+ depends how well the paste was applied under the IHS. Plus 8700K's run a little hotter to begin with, not much headroom for overclocking.
