CPU temp

[coolmenxlz1]

Hello guys quick question I just got an intel i7 6850k chip on my new build and I was wondering when I'm in bios it says that the temp of the CPU is 76 Celsius from a cold start is that even possible? As well as what is the idle temp? Or Max temp? Do you think I might of put to little thermal paste on the CPU block? The type of CPU block I'm using is a cooler master hyper 212 evo. 

 

 

 

Please someone help.

That doesn't sound possible form a cold start, but if it is turn it off N  O  W. If you have NO CPU PASTE, then the damage is likely done. If you do, take it off and reseat the CPU.

I waited about 4 hours, and I returned the computer on again and from a cold start and it's reading 31 Celsius. Looks like it wasn't reading the temp correctly at first.

That temp would be normal if you had no ihs and no heat sink.
