I7 6700k too hot

[Drevo]

Hello,

I have I7 6700K OC to 4.2ghz, usind noctua nh d14 cooler, artic cooler mx4  2019 thermal paste and my temps are incredible high.

As you can see in cpu-z  Vcore is 1.235v in bios. Dont know what to do. 

Case is CM mystique with 120mm intake and outake fans. Thermal paste was applied 2 months ago, replaced older 6 months since temp were higher than this, dont think its bad thermal paste application. 

I remowed cooler sticker so there should be no problem, IDLE are temps 38-45 (hottest core 45, others around 40.

 

MOBO is asus z270-a

 

EDIT: temp in load 95 hottest core and other cores bellow 80.

those temps seem fine ive got mine at 4.6ghz @ 1.296 with no issues and idle temps from 30-40

 

Cooler is corsair h105

perfectly normal.

[Drevo]

did you see temps while load? 95 hottest core and others under 80

something liike cinebench can really heat up your system. i wouldn't be TOO concerned.

I restarted pc due to win 10 update and it beeps telling me cpu overheated

ensure adequate mounting pressure and paste application

 

 

[Drevo]

and why is that one core hotter than others? 15 degrees is much I think

a few degrees or even 5 or so wouldn't be uncommon

 

I'd say inadequate/uneven mounting pressure

I tied it as much as I could I mean noctua mounting mechanism to board same with cooler to bracket

how much paste did you use?

 

it's hard to use too much, but easy to use too little

Probably too much it was X with bigger dot in center of X

if mounting pressure is good, then too much won't be a problem it just spills over the sides (well, that can be a problem, but a different problem)

first of all, what does hwinfo64 report? 

second of all, re seat the cooler and re apply thermal paste.

ambient? and case airflow?

[Mister Woof]

also possible the TIM under the IHS sucks or dried up. which isn't unusual.

 

a delid will help even if it isn't shitty(er) either way. but its more invasive.

case airflow is  one front 120mm fan and one back 120mm fan

 

Edit: 24degrees celsius, room temperature

can we get the other metrics that deal with voltage and cpu temp

that's the case?! yea that seems like it's choked. open the side panel and check temps.

also this screen shot does not show temp monitoring.

I use manual OC bios, I set there CPU vcore 1.235 so why is it more?

VID isn't the same as vcore

 

and your actual voltages aren't always what you set.

defintly re seat the cooler and re apply thermal paste and check. 

and open the case side panel and check.

I reseated cooler, reapplied thermal paste (old cleaned with alcohol and wipes) thermals went down by few degrees still not as much as I would like, I will delid this cpu. Still is one core 15-16 degrees hotter than others
