At idle it's been running at ~80°C.

Then under a stress test with Prime95, it slowly creeps up to ~95°C.

I'm pretty sure that these temps aren't normal.

I'm currently only running at 3.9GHz. I was planning to overclock, but that's postponed until this problem is fixed.

If anyone could help that would be great!

change that thermal paste, check your idle temps in BIOS its more accurate than HWmonitor\

 

 

and please DONT STRESS TEST IS AGAIN, your going to kill your APU faster with that heat  

 

thats why too hot for AMD it shouldn't be above like 76c on AMD but 80c is usally the max that you want it on full load

if you really have a cm seidon 120v something is wrong. maybe you forgot thermal paste or left the cover of the cooler on or there is not fan at the radiator. maybe the pump has no power?

GreezyJeezy - Yea it must be the thermal paste. I checked it in the bios also and it said ~76°C, so I'm not too sure.

ChrisCross - 100% Applied the thermal paste, I remember doing it. The cover of the cooler was removed, there is a fan on the radiator and the pump is powered.

givegomezthegun - I'm using a Cooler Master Seidon 120v Ver.2. It is mounted properly.

 

I'll change the thermal paste first and see if that resolves the issue.
