Hello
I've recently made the swap over from AMD to Intel.
Purchased the new i7 4790k with an Asus Maximus VII Hero board.
All stock settings on CPU,
and Stock cooler
on Idle CPU is running 53C
and on Prime95 running a blend test I got into the 90s before I stopped the test.
My old cpu rarely hit 50C and ran idle in the 30Cs, so the strikes me odd.
I've tried reseating the cooler to make sure that wasn't the issue.
And reapplied thermal paste.
Should I be concerned and return this ?
Maybe adjusting voltage in mobo ?
Also is it normal that all the cpu core temps bounce around ?
Thanks
