4770k temps higher then expected?

[Glanza]

Yesterday whilst playing Metro:LL realtemp says the chip peaked at 67c is this high for the chip?

It's currently running @ 4.4ghz and it's under water but on the same loop as 2x 780s, The gpus only hit 40c on a full load.

Idle it's sitting around 32c and on most over games the highest I've seen it go is into the high 40s.

Am I being paranoid or is it due to Metro:LL being the resource hog that it is with everything maxxed out?

I upgraded from a 2700k @ 4.5ghz but never saw that go higher then 30c whilst under water on a full load.

Metro is heavy. That temp is still fine for haswell, even though on the high side considering what you're cooling it with.

I wouldn't really worry, metro is probably pushing your graphicards cards to the max, so all that warm liquid messes up your CPU temp.

But I am not a watercooling expert, so this is just a guess.
