Recently i switched form an i5 6600k to an i7 6700k. But when i use heavy CPU programms the i7 reaches extremly fast 70-80 ºC .

I don't understand this because i have an Corsair h110i GTX. And even when i change the profile to max in Corsair link the temperature remains on 70-80 ºC.

Any suggestions or ideas why this happens?

Show us a HWMonitor screenshot of your PC under load displaying all mobo and CPU info. We need to know more before we can point a finger at anything.

as its running, try pushing on the pump block and see if the temps change at all. if they drop a bit, then the cooler isnt properly mounted, which is what it sounds like

Did you overclock it? Did you apply the thermal paste and the heatsink correctly? What program do you use to benchmark it? What voltage is CPU-Z reporting during load?

i overclocked it to 4.7 GHz. 

i applied the thermal paste exactly as linus does it :P

i tried Cine bench https://goo.gl/photos/Gp3dxi9AQmgBy4SaA

i have no idea how much Voltage but in uefi it is on AUTO

AUTO voltages will give more voltage than the CPU needs to be stable, and therefore cause more heat, especially at such a high clock. That may be the reason. 

ok how much Voltage di i need for stable 4.6Ghz ??
