Hi, i have a i7 7700k, and recently i bought a Krakenm22 cooler, but i have this problem, 4 different temp controlers say diferents temps, one 30C, 77C, 85C, and 100C, and bios says 100C, and i want to know if it is the cooler, or my cpu or idk, pls help xd

You mean 30, 77, 85 and 100ºC are the difference temperatures for each core? In that case, that's obviously a bad sitting or bad pasting. The 7700k is known to be a hoy processor but I have a 6700k with a similar AIO at stock speeds and I think the temperature wont go above 60ºC with the fan at low speeds (but my 6700k has a -150mV undervolt).

Anyways, my AIO features a extra-slim radiator+fan setup so its performance should be at least a little worse than yours. So if as said that four temps are from the four cores at the same time, it's a bad sitting. If these 4 temperatures are from 4 different softwares when running the same task, then there's something wrong with the temperature reading. If you use that processor to play, you can...

If you use that processor to play, you can install MSI Afterburner to check in game the temperatures and usage in real time, so you can check each core temperature and if reaching 100ºC the performance drops to avoid burning (throttling).
