I just got a new i7 6700 processor I took my fan off my I-5 remove the thermal paste from the cooler and processor took the processor out put the i7 in put a pea-sized amount of thermal paste on put the cooler back on fastened it plug the fan in everything should be correct but when I went to boot right at the windows logo the PC powered off I powered it on again and went to the BIOS and the temperatures are fine it was at 31c it's climbed to 34 from being on for a while but that is completely fine temperatures for idle the voltage is 1.188 volts but I can't overclock it anyway cuz it's a non k skew and I don't have a z170 board so the voltage should be stock. Any ideas?

If it is the same install of Windows, it may have been getting used to (as I call it) the new CPU. If it works, good. Just monitor those CPu temps and run a few stability tests and you should be fine.

technically, people recommend to reinstall windows with the change of such hardware. but i too, replaced my mb a couple of weeks back cuz i screwed up the pins on my old one, didnt reinstall anything since it was the same chipset. win 10 did its thing and it all works as it should.
