I just built a new PC using an i7-6800K and have doubts about the temps. (You can find the specs in my signature, It's the PleaseIgnore build.)
So I wanted to get the CPU to 4.3Ghz. To achieve this I had to do 1.302 on the Vcore for it to be stable.
With the Cooler Master Hyper 612 Ver. 2and Artic MX-4 thermal paste I was getting 31C idle and 80C peak running IntelBurnTest.
Thinking that was a bit much, I wanted to up the game and get a Dark Rock Pro! cooler capable of dissipating 250W TDP apparently.
Installed it, which was a nightmare, with the same thermal paste (MX-4) and ran the tests again, and similar results, 29C Idle and 80C peak.
Is this normal for this CPU/Cooler setup? Ambient room temps are about 26C.
The Case has 2 Corsair AF120s in the front pulling air, 1 in the back of right behind the CPU cooler pulling air out and another 1 right on top of the CPU cooler pulling air out.
tl;dr i7-6800K with be quiet! DARK ROCK PRO 3 Silentwings temps peaking at 80C on synthetic benchmarks.
