Yes, most overclockers will tell you not to exceed 80C at full load. The reason for the high temperature is the voltage, which is too high. Are you setting this manually or using an overclocking utility?I am going into the BIOS and changing the multiplier to 45, thats it. i left the voltage at auto. At idle, the temp is 50C.

That is way to hot. Try to stay in the mid 80s.
Your voltage also seems a bit high, but that could just be your specific chip.
We suggest manual to find out what your chip is capable of, once you know that you can use offset to tweak settings.
Simply just changing the modifier, is not how you should be overclocking. Research a bit more.

Manual voltage
Advantage: lowest possible voltage and heat at max load
Disadvantage: no power saving at idle because it runs at set multiplier all the time
Auto voltage
Advantage: allows for low power state at idle
Disadvantage: almost always provide too much voltage at max load, generating more heat
That's the trade off between auto and manual OC methods.
Since you're worried about load temperatures, manual voltage should be better for you.

Thank you, i checked my h100i and its on good. I guess i will just have to lower the OC to 4.2 to stay at 80C

Best solution
Like the others have said, you definitely want manual voltage, so you should read up on that.
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/272214-29-wolfram-b...
To give you an idea of what voltage to use, here the results from my 2500K. You should be able to go lower than this, but at least it gives you a starting point.
4Ghz - 1.2V
4.2Ghz - 1.22V
4.4Ghz - 1.245V
At 4.5Ghz, you're probably going to be around 1.23V-1.24V, but it depends on the chip you got. Overclocking is never an exact science.

I managed to OC at 4.2Ghz at 1.15v. At a max temp of 84.8C. Is that ok?

I have same cpu and same cooler and im sure you have cooler problem. I did fix it with rubber washers 2.5mm height. Just add em on the back plate and then tighten to your mobo. Be careful with water block, better use more time but tighten properly, so all 4 screws are tightened the same and start from one side and go in circle so you have best seating possible. That way i manage to get 20C lower temps for my self and could get 4.8ghz @ 1.39v, now via intel extreme tuning and aida64 my cpu heats up MAX 81C, on idle its around 29-31C and while playing planetside2 on maxed out settings ~45C. If you have another type of mobo, then all you have to do, get your backplate right, there is one side a bit larger so it doesnt cower two screws on your mobo and fits in like a glove. I have maximus vii hero mobo and even with right positioning i couldnt tighten backplate right so it had very big movement and adding washers did fix it 100%. Maby it helps i used mx-4 thermal paste that i put in an X on the cpu.

In my opinion, anything above 80C is too high. It's within the processor's tolerances, but there should be room for improvement. Is that temperature with manual voltage? If not, I'd encourage you to read up on it.I just reapplied thermal paste, and adjusted the water block. Now at full load, at 4.2Ghz and 1.15V, the core reaches a max of 75C. That good now?

no, its not good. I told you already i have same cpu and cooler, running 4.8ghz at alot higher voltage=1.395v
And my temperatures durring stress test is 81C maximum. At your voltage, cpu shouldnt get hotter than low 60s
Did your H100i bacplate was pretty loose when you screw it to the mobo? Do you have case with backplate visible? Just try and move it to your self from mobo, if it has the movement, you have to add washers so theres no movement. If it doesnt move at all, did you install it correctly where one on 4 sides have larger space so backplate doesnt touch two screws on mobo? If backplate is covering all or half ot those screws on mobo, you hav to install it properly.
And this is a good tutorial how to oc this chip: http://www.overclockers.com/3step-guide-to-overclock-in...
Btw, whats your idle temperature and ambient one? Im getting ~31C idle with ambient of 20-21C
And my temperatures durring stress test is 81C maximum. At your voltage, cpu shouldnt get hotter than low 60s

I really suggest you testing out if your H100i backplate isnt wobbling. If that doesnt req too much time for you, if it does, fixing that problem will decrease your temps for sure. Just test it as i didnt want believe that it could make so huge difference, but id did for me.
But sure, it could be the cause too, if you dont have proper case cooling + sucking hot air trough radiator. i have haf 932 case, but i use my h100i fans as excaust. Just test it, try to move backplate off of mobo while its screwed down to the max.
But if thats too much trouble and you are fine with 4.2ghz, then i dont see point in doing so, if only you want to get higher oc, then for sure test it!

Thanks a lot for your help. Im just gonna stick with 4.2. If i ever consider going higher, i will keep this in mind! And what do u mean by wobbling. Wobbling while the waterblock is on, or off?

I just took out th mobo to look at the backplate. The backplates washers are in place, not allowing it to come in contact with the mobo. and it is only a little bit wiggly when the waterblock is not connected.

Dude...u were totally right about the backplate. I got anxcious so i took the mobo out and everything to see, and yes the backplate was in, but the grooves werent in the silver things. Basically i had to turn the backplate 90 degrees. Now my temps idle are 30C. and at 50C at full load. thank you so much. I never would have thought this would be the problem.
