I have all stock settings, and have never OCed my 8700k. I just put in a new Corsair H100i RGB AIO cooler since my Hyper 212 Evo was giving me high temps.. I ran prime95 with CPU HWMONITOR running the back to see my temps. I saw that the vcore was 1.344v.. I feel like this is too high for stock default settings on an i7 8700k as I see people OC to 5ghz with lower vcore..

What should I do to lower these temperatures to below 80C?

P.S. Here is a link for my CPU HWMonitor temps and settings

Solution
When I go into the bios AI tweaked the core volt is set a 1.136.. do I just put a negative offset to that and go down by increments?
I would just use the Intel tuning tool instead.
It makes life easier...
