Just installed a Amd A10 6800k cpu to a newly installed Gigabyte ga-f2a88xm-hd3 motherboard and 8 gb Corsair Vengeance ram
I have the stock cooler which came with the CPU. I will be changing it cos it is horribly noisy.
CPU is running at default settings 4.10ghz. Tonight I decided to run Prime 95 to see how it would fare. I ran it for about 5 mins but the CPU temps showing in CPUID HWMonitor looked very scary indeed and shot up to 99c. Maybe I read it wrong but I chickened out and stopped the test in case I damaged something. Is it normal to go this high with Prime 95 default test?
Pics below of HW Monitor, with prime 95 running.
2nd pic HW Monitor again but with onlky Firefox running
