So I have a couple questions with my new pc

 

Specs:

Intel core i5 6600K

Noctua NH-L9i

Asus z170 pro gaming mitx

Corsair 16GB

Western Digital - Blue 250GB

Western Digital - Black 1TB

EVGA - GeForce GTX 1070

Fractal Design - Node 202

Silverstone - 600W 80+ Gold

 

So when ever I play mostly any game like CSGO, Cities skylines etc. My cpu runs anywhere from 60C-76C is this too high? And is this normal that every time I play a game that taxes the cpu it runs at 70C AVG. Is it so consistent because of core clock, and If it's running below 70C the pc says "hey lets turn up to clock speeds"

Those temps are pretty okay, 85+ is when you should start to get a bit concerned. I went overkill selecting mine but hey, 40-50 while under constant 100% load for over 8 hours at a time. 

I suck a typing, preparw for typos.

You're fine up to 80-90c at load. That being said, the game you're playing probably isn't taxing. Temps will be higher when stress testing and the NH-L9i provides very little headroom for oc.
