Help!

My Intel I5 4690k was running quite hot when i was using Aida64 running a system stability test even though I had not Overclocked it. it was running at 99C on core #0 and 86 on core #3 that seems really high are these numbers safe? and if they are not why would a PC manufacturer build a PC with insufficient CPU cooling?

Cooler might just be inproperly seated on the CPU?

Tried changing thermal paste?

 

And most PC manufacturers dont expect their customers to check CPU temperatures.

as long as it's stable and doesn't throttle there isn't anything dangerous about it.

Ok i dont have any thermal paste right now I am thinking of getting a new cooler soon so I can OC my cpu ill try looking at the cpu cooler and making sure it is seated properly (it is the stock cooler if that helps).

99C on a core should not be happening. Continuously running at that temperature will cause unnecessary degradation.

I have the same CPU and it's almost never running above 70C under heavy load.

 

Are you using the stock cooler?

that was during a stress test. Define your meaning of continuously.

 

Also degradation is almost meaningless at this point.

yes

Is it mounted properly? Do you have thermal paste applied if it was removed previously?

And you think 1 degree away from TJ Max is okay? For stock? Even with a stock cooler, that is unacceptable.

 

Continuously meaning 24/7, and during any kind of high load(like GTA 5 for example), the CPU will be running very hot, and if the user is playing for say two hours - not super great for the CPU.

yes thermal paste is applied. i will try remounting the cooler and getting new thermal paste on it would it be ok if I waited for a couple week until replacing the thermal paste becuase i don't have.also iss a good thermal paste? \

I think the program he uses to measure temps is bullshitting since 99 on one core 86 on another doesn't add up.

 

 

Also CPU's can handle themselves these days, if it doesn't throttle it's okay.

I have seen CPU temperatures have major differences between cores.

 

Sorry, but 1 degree away from TJ Max is not okay, especially at a stock frequency. You can stick to your opinion. I will stick to mine.

back i just ran another stress test and my cpu hit tjmax so i am going to go reseat the cooler

[arendsoogg]

I don't remember my 4690k running that hot on a stock cooler so it may indeed be a good idea to remount/reapply your cooler and thermal paste

[KettyKoala]

Check for excessive amounts of dust within your cooler's heatsink, and like the other guys have said, check that it is seated properly and screwed down tight  If the problem persists, try applying new thermal paste, if that doesn't work, something is wrong!

be back in 10 minuets tthanks for all the help so far guys

I got a pic of cooler and cpu new thermal paste time?

Well, since you removed the cooler, you will need to put on new paste anyways.

[VoyexTech]

Also when I seat the coole does the sticker need to be the correct way? Readable fROM left to right

The orientation of the label does not matter.

Well I don't have any do I order some and wait until it comes until I boot the pc?

Yes. Please do not use the PC without putting on new paste.

Got it thank you I will do that and then boot the pc hopefully it will be fixed. Than lyou and everyone else for your help with the issue I'm glad I was able to resolve it.
