I just reseated my cpu and my cooler because i thought i was getting way to high of temps while doing small FFT's on prime 95. I was getting around 93C. After i reseated my cpu and cooler though and I ran the stress test again it instantly jumped up to 100C. Could something else be wrong?

System:
CPU: I5-4670k @ 4.16MHz 1.176V (Asus optimal settings)
Cooler: H100i
Mobo: Asus Z87-A
Ram:Corsair Vengeance 2x4 1333MHz
GPU:EVGA GTX 970 SC
PSU: Corsair CX 750M

When I cleaned my cpu it looked like I had put a bit too much paste, so this time I applied a bit less (about the same width of the capacitors)
