Hello all, i have just replaced my I5 4670k with my new I7 4790k. I'm using a H100i as the cooler. The first boot went fine, low idle temps in mid to high twenties so i then decided to try out the automatic turbo mode to bump it up to 4.4. I did this and had mid 40's as my idle and didn't enjoy seeing it his 70C only at the DayZ Main screen. So i rebooted the computer, set the Cores back down to 4.0 manually, and the idle temps are still sitting in the mid fourties. I'm not sure what is wrong or what might still be enabled which could be causing this issue. Thank you in advance.
