Hi Friends,
I just finished my build, and i have noticed that the computer might seem to be running a little hot, with pretty much no load on it. I don't know if i didn't apply enough thermal paste.. or are my temps normal? Thanks for your help!

Here are my specs:
i7-4790
MSI Z97 Gaming 5
MSI GTX 960 4gb.
16GB ram
NZXT X61 Kraken Cooler: Front of the case
(Push Pull Set up) Using 4 Noctua Industrial 2000rpm fans
2- Fractal 140mmFans for exhaust
 
Looks good to me. 4790s AFAIK run a bit warmer. You'll need to run some benchmarks and push its load. Just don't let it go past 80c otherwise it looks fine from here.
 
What's the ambient temperature?
What are the load temps?
Are you sure nothing is running including things like Windows update?
