hi I'm running an i7-4770k with an H80i on an ROG Maximus vi board,

I've had this set up for about a month, and wanted to overclock, i stressed my cpu prior to overclocking using prime 95, and my temps while under load are around 95C

 

im pretty sure somethings wrong with my watercooler but i need a second opinion

What's you OC speed. Plus with H80i that sounds about right, it's not that great of a cooler.

Please don't use prime 95. Prime 95 stresses the CPU more than it should, it may harm the CPU itself. 

Use the Intel burn test.
