Keep OC or wait for delid?

So I'm convinced that my 8700k has an absolutely brutal TIM application under the IHS. I was running it at 4.7GHz all cores with 1.250v and getting 86c in RealBench after 30 mins w/ a Kraken x62 cooler. After 30 minutes on stock frequencies at the same voltage, I got a max of 72c which is much cooler. I use my PC mainly for games @1440p with a little bit of photo editing from time to time. I was just looking for some opinion on this but given my usage, should I just keep it at stock until I eventually de lid? I'm not really sure if that kind of temp increase is worth it.

You sure your cooler is installed correctly? 

 

That's awfully high for only 1.25v

I've remounted it several times including re securing the back bracket and got around the same temps each time.

I have the fans and pump set to "performance" mode in CAM.

82 isn’t anything to be scared of. These chips run very hot.

No, but something seems strange to get that hot from only 1.25v.

 

I got those temps at 4.9ghz at 1.35v with a worse cooler before my delid.

 

Is your ambient temp very warm?

It's pretty warm now but we got cold winters here in Canada and it was only a little lower. This is why I'm convinced that I lost the TIM lottery. There's a few other posts I've come across on other boards where people encountered the same kinds of temps with lower voltages. Luck of the draw I guess. Just to rule out cooler issues, I'm getting great idle temps with it, around 28c.
