Broken 4770k?

Hello LTT forum, im hoping one of you can help me out with my 4770k issues. So their are a few issues, The first is that once my cpu gets to a high temp, 70 Celsius +, the temperature doesn't come back down, it just sits at 70 or above and then starts increasing even at 1% usage. This is running stock settings fully rest board being cooled by CoolerMaster 240m, with the 2 selencio fans in push on the rad. The next issues is that the old cooler i had was just a stock 120mm cooler no brand thing (I didn't build this pc, got an amazing deal and upgraded it) now with that cooler it had a broken nut holding down the bottom left corner so not the best contact to the CPU. Howerver it got to 4.5GHz stable at 75c no issues with a broken cooler running 2x 690's in the case at the same time. I now have a new 240m properly held down, properly applied thermal paste and no gpu, running @ 3.5GHz and it hit's over 75c in skyrim on low. Can someone please help my full spec list is below. The biggest issues by far is that just idling i have all 3 of my monitors plugged into the board, no gaming not straining the on board 4600 graphics, just watching youtube and reading forums. the cpu gets to 65c with the cpu controlling the fans. Is my cpu destroyed? do i need a new one? perhaps return the cooler? Any help will be more than appreciated, no I.T guys are from the small area i live in so i can't get one out to fix it.

What was your process with overclocking?

 

Programs voltage clocks.

First thing I noticed, you've got 2 fans installed both in Push? You mean like this?

Okay what's your overclock?

Try setting the voltage to about 1.15v in the bios if you're at stock, anything above 4 Ghz set it to 1.2v
