I've got a few questions about my build, I seem to be running extremely hot from this build. Below are the specs of the machine:

 

Case: Cooler Master Storm Stryker

Motherboard: MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming

CPU: Intel i7-4790K (of course)

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i

RAM: Corsair Vangeance PRO 32 GB 2400MHz

Power supply: Corsair 650RM

BootDrive: SanDisk Extreme Pro 240GB in RAID0

Storage Drive: 2 x 6TB Seagate drives

GPU: MSI GTX 970 GAMING

 

 

Currently I'm not Overclocking the machine as I don't need to as of right now. Under a stress test my CPU temps were ranging from 93C on the highest core and 77C on the coolest core. I am located in an area where the average ambient temperature is about 70C. This machine will be used for quite a few heavy hitting apps for programming, video/photo editing, and a few other heavy programs. I need to figure this out as this machine is going to be running for the most part 24/7. Any help will be great.

 

Thanks in advance.

I kid you not, that is almost the exact same as my old rig before I switched cases.

 

Wait, your ambient temps average 70 Degrees Celsius? If it's that hot, you have a lot more to worry about then your PC O_O

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

your cooler is probably not seated properly there's an issue with how the mounting brackets are on the H100i i think @Faceman is able to help you figure this out when he come around.
