Hey guys. I know there was so many posts just like this one but trust me i tried most of it and didn't help. So i have i7 4790k , mobo z97 extreme6 and nzxt kraken x62. And my temps are freaking high 45 at idle and 70-85 gaming/stress testing. I set the x62 on performance just so it doesn`t over heat. I tried reinstalling the cpu cooler ,reapplying the paste no difference.

Are you using the proper mounting screws/are they secured all the way down?
What's your ambient temperature?
What case are you using?
Where is the radiator located?
How are your fans configured?

Besides the things above.. OS? My CPU (same CPU as yours) was cooking on Windows 10, meanwhile stays cool even under stress test in Windows 8. Never found a solution.
1.I believe its mounter properly. i watched the video and followed the guide. I used the x61 and it worked fine.but the pump died so ncix replaced me with this one. because they didnt have the x61.
2. about 20degrees
3.meshify c
4. front of the case so im pulling the air into the case
5.pull air in if thats what you mean or performance in cam software same for the pump/
6. win 10 pro

I don't think this is a coincidence. I believe there's something terribly wrong with Windows 10 and 4790k. Try launching portable bootable Win7, Win8 or any other OS besides Win10 and do some stress testing.
My case was even more crazier - Stress testing returned 100c celsius in first few seconds. Under windows 8, it never went above 70c (stock cooler).
