Hey everyone,
First and foremost i am a newbie at pc builds and components and i just received my first ever gaming pc pre built (yes i should've built it myself but ill learn as i go). Everything seems to be running fine except a scary 100°C CPU temperature even though it may be at like 20% usage/load and i don't know why? It's not overclocked and I've a very good case and good cooling fans so this doesn't make sense to me. One other thing ill say is there is an orange light on my motherboard i can't distinguish if its by design or some sort of warning. It may be a signal to this problem or may not I'm not sure.
Here's a full list of my hardware:
Case: Sama Ark Gaming Case With Side Window and 5x RGB Fans + 5 12cm cooling fans
Motherboard - Gigabyte H110M-DS2
Motherboard Expansion - 1x PCI Express x16, 2x PCI Express x1
CPU Type - Intel i7 7th Generation Kaby Lake
CPU Model - Intel Core I7 7700 3.6ghz 8mb Cache 7th Gen Kaby Lake
CPU Socket - Intel 1151
CPU Speed - 3.6 Ghz
CPU Max Turbo Clock Speed - 4.2 Ghz
CPU Cooler - Standard Intel Cooler
Memory - 16gb DDR4 2133mhz Performance Ram
Hard Drive Size - 2tb Sata 64mb Cache 7200rpm
Optical Drive -Samsung 24x Sata DVD Writer
Graphics Card - Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6gb VR Ready
PSU Size - EVGA 600w Quiet 80 Plus Bronze Certified Semi Modular Power Supply
Somebody please help I'm really nervous about potentially damaging my new cpu
