Hello, was running OCCT, RealBench stress tests and a gaming test for the new setup but I have a question.

Even though my case is small, getting 80c at load seems like a voltage issue to me, according to reports of HwMonitor, the CPU Turbo'd to 4.5 Mhz, with a Max temp of 80c, and a voltage of 1.364.

I think the voltage is too high and the mobo is doing a bad job. However I dont have a Z series mobo, actually its a updated bios H110I PRO.

What do you suggest is this normal? I think that voltage is the reason of excessive heat.

Gotcha Blackbird, I am not really keen on overclocking, the only reason I got the K was to enjoy the couple Mhz more on the Turbo function.

What would you suggest? It has to be an ITX, would a B250 work better?
