Intel I5 6600K Safe Temperatures

[Mac070]

Hey i recently returned my watercooler since it died and was making noise. So i popped a stock cooler my friend gave me on the I5 6600K . I have no overclocks on any of my components and wanted to know what is a max temperature for gaming. Thanks

According to the Guide these are safe temps :

"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

Core temperatures in the mid 70's are safe."
