Hi all,
First let me tell you guys I am kinda the newbie when it comes to building and cooling. I just finished my first rig and everything worked fine, however, my temperatures are reaching 100C degrees and I have no idea why.

I ran some stress testing on it (HeavyLoad) and it stayed fluctuating between 97~100 at all times. At the time of this screen there was only 1 installation happening as well. This can't be normal.
I am using a corsair H100i for cooling and I didn't apply any thermal paste as it already comes pre applied. The rest of my build is:
Asus Maximus VII Hero
G.Skill 2400mhz 2x8GB sticks
GeForce GTX 780
PSU: Corsair 860AX
I would highly appreciate some help and guidance on where to start researching the problem.
Thanks in advance.
