When I run prime95 and coretemp my CPU gets up to its tj max in a few minutes. Its really annoying because I would like to overclock my CPU, but with these temps I don't think that'll happen. Can anyone help explain to me why this happens?
I use Corsair Link as my fan controller, and I have it set with fans at maximum speed while I run prime95. I use the stock fans as an intake. My CPU idles at about 33 degrees Celsius. I've tried resetting my bios, and reapplying thermal paste. The screws are as tight as I can get them on the water block.
System Specs:
Intel 4670k
MSI GD-65 motherboard
H100i water cooler
EVGA GTX 780 GPU
