Just as what the title says, the temps for my 4770k stay the same from stock clocks and turbos to 4.2 fixed clocked. It even got hotter using stock!?!? What's happening? Is this a black magic CPU? Will my temps get lower the higher I clock? It's ridiculous, no joke.
I use real temp GT but that's probably not the problem
Intel Burn Test to test the processor
 
Solution
oh alright id remove the cooler. remove the thermalpaste with 80% rubbing alcohol. reapply thermal paste and secure the cooler again should fix ur problem

Well my temps got lower when I added more voltage to the CPU. Stock which is around like 1.1v got to 80c
4.2GHz around 1.32v got around 75c

Ooops I accidentally picked this as the good answer but I already did that and still. Temps were high. I might plan on delidding but I don't rely on that
