So I just got the 8700K, EVGA 2070. My cpu cooler is the Corsair H100i GTX. I've had this for just over 3 years (the cooler) my temps on max settings (BFV, R6S, RUST, BO4) 80% load is hitting 75-85c
I have 6 fans total, 3 intake and 3 exhaust. NZXT Noctis 450 case.

I have no idea how its getting this hot, maybe a new watercooler is due?

Okay the chip should idle with a AIO at around 25C or less. I would get a new cooler.

Bur first: Make sure you regularly clean your PC, especially the radiator for the cooler.

I'll clean the radiator as its a little dusty but everything else us spotless.

If it's the same, I'll try a new cooler, I looked to see if the CPU was flat as well and it is so it's not a case of bad contact either.

Just hoping I don't have to delid the thing
