Ok so I just finished building my first pc and I had quite a bit of trouble installing my CPU cooler (Hyper 212 evo). When installing I placed the heatsink wrong and had to remove and re-apply my thermal paste (I used Arcticlean 1 & 2) so I was a bit nervous.
My CPU is the i7 6700k as stated in the title and I have NOT overclocked it.
I decided to stress test my CPU and check the temps just to makes sure I got it right. I ran a blend test on prime95 v28.7 and CPU usage according to task manager was between 96-99% at all times during the test.
I measured core temps using Speccy (from piriform).
I ran the test for about 10 minutes and the avg Core temps generally stayed between 63-65 degrees with core 0 occasionally reaching 68.
Unfortunately Im a bit of a noob with CPU temps and this information means next to nothing to me. Is this ok ? do i need to remove my CPU cooler and try again ? Thanks in advance
