[SOLVED] Test Bench - Hot Cpu Temp

[Biggest_Cheeser]

Hey everyone, first time building so I have a pretty dumb question:

Ran a test bench and booted into BIOS. CPU temp shot straight to 115 degrees celcius but maintained that temp (No spiking).
Is it because I didn't have the cooler on?
Or is there a larger underlying issue that I should address before assembling the entire PC.

CPU is 10600k btw. Can't wait to look back on this and realize how ridiculous the whole situation is

Are saying you were actually running your CPU with...no cooler on top of it?

Good Lord! (don't do that!)

Haha you have no idea how relieved I am to know the problem was my own idiocy
In all seriousness: Thank you

Was just having trouble getting teh AIO into the case and wanted to see if everything booted before locking everything into place. Will not do again! Lesson learned!

a 10600K is plenty of CPU; slap a cooler on it, and enjoy!
