I just built my system last week and am wrapping up the OC process tonight. I've got a stable (AIDA64 & Real-Life tested) 4.5GhZ @ 1.275V CPU overclock, but was a little concerned on whether my temps were in a safe range for prolonged use. Below is the build info I thought would be useful to know for this:
5930k
Asus X99-Deluxe
Corsair HX1000i
Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB
EVGA GTX 980 FTW
Corsair Hydro H100i
Corsair C70 Vengeance Case
My AIDA64 temps maxed out at around 76C on the CPU with an average around 67C. My idle CPU temp is 36-40C (Corsair Link) or 45C (HWMonitor). I thought the idle seemed a bit high even with the variance from chip to chip. My initial thought was to check to see if my H100i seating was off, but wanted to double check on here for your thoughts. If it is the H100i seating, what's a good way to identify that?
