So let me start off is to why I ran prime 95, to start with I had got a bsod and it was due to hal.dll+12a3b which is said to be hardware related. It was the first time ever getting a bsod message of this kind. So I did a memtest with like 8 passes and that works fine, gpu temps are really good. cpu temps when gaming gets up to about 68-75 degrees c. idle temps are in the low 30's. When I ran prime 95 small ffts I was getting temps of about 87 degrees c after only 10 mins or so, so i stopped the process. It seems like the minute i test it temps go up rapidly, I've used both hwmonitor and coretemp. I've heard these processors run hot. The thing is my computer is only 4 months old, it's very clean inside with good airflow. Everything is stock and it is not overclocked, my cpu uses the stock intel heatsink as well. My question is should I just ignore the bsod, because the computer seems to be running fine or should i be worried. I was thinking about replacing the stock cooler with a Hyper 212 EVO.
