So i recently finished my new PC build. I have an i7-6700k With a dark rock pro 3 CPU cooler. At idle my temps are around 27C usually. Those are good idle temps but whe i tested with prime95 they sat around 82C. Now i know Prime95 is pretty harsh but should i be worried about those being to high?
 
Solution
That's still safe, and to be expected from Prime95, even if you intended to just use your computer to run Prime95 all day. What are your temps during things you actually typically do on your computer?

Oops didn't mean to pick yours as answer but oh well. And I'll be gaming and doing video editing with it. I have yet to test it much but i'll get back to you.
