Hello everyone,
I had a lot of help from this community in building my new gaming pc and I really don't have much knowlege on picking parts or assembling the pc. So after few days of searching I assembled this pc:
cpu: i5 4690k
mobo: gigabyte GA-Z97-D3H
ram: Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB 1600 x1
gpu: gigabyte gtx 780 windforce x3 oc
HDD: 120 GB SSD kingston + 1TB seagate baracuda 7200rpm
psu: corsair CX 750M
case: cooler master 690 cm III
cpu cooler: cooler master seidon 120m (came free with case)
The cpu cooler was bundled with the case and was really close in price if I get a CM HAF 912 case + EVO 212 plus cpu fan. I dont have knowledge in building pc and wanted it urgently so the shop did offer to assemble it for free.
PC is working well and nothing wrong with it so far but I did notice slightly high fan noise when playing games so wanted to know if the liquid cooling is attached well. I ran prime95 along with RealTemp and from pictures you would notice it hit 75 C max. Then I tested Intel burn and temperature hit 100 C and you could see LOG thermal status in RealTemp. Both tests did like 100% cpu load so why is intel burn test made cpu reach 100C?
I thought maybe liquid cooling seidon 120m is weak or not installed properly and so did take photos for the case and the way fans are installed. One suggestion I found online is that seidon fan could be mounted on the back of the case and pulls fresh air from outside into the case. In my case it does pulls air from outside but it is mounted at the top?
Also I did find an extra strong fan laying around and did mount it at the bottom of case so it pulls cold air from bottom then into the case.
Last I began to hear ticking or noisy sound from the pump which is shown in the video.

More info: I download all the software from Gigabyte for the motherboard and did set the auto OC which was chosen to be 4.3GHZ.
