I ran Prime95 for approx 5 seconds before i got notifications saying my CPU was above 100 degrees Celsius. I feel like my computer shouldn't be this hot. Its using a stock Intel fan and 4 other case fans. The ambient temperature isn't anything too hot either.

Hi OP,

Oka. Let me make one thing clear. Do not stress test your computer with stock fan! Whatever software you use for testing the CPU's maximum capability, first make sure you are using an aftermarket cooler.

If looking for air cooler, hyper 212 plus is the best for your needs.

If looking for water cooling, Corsair H100i is the right one.
