Hi all,

I'm running a 7700k with an overclock to 4.7 on a Corsair H80i cooler. I am having issues with temps, gaming it quite often goes above 90 degrees on most of the cores. I've tried reseating the cooler with fresh thermal paste twice and using a different cooler which has no impact. Any ideas or is it just a hot chip?

I'm in Phanteks Enthoo-Evolv case.
 
Thanks, i will look into this.

At the moment I just overclock by adjusting the core speed in the bios and don't mess with the voltages. I assume this is done automatically, is it better to do it manually?
 
I messed with the cpu voltage I was running "auto" in the bios. Getting 75 max now with a 4.9 overclock. Seems to be stable with a very low voltage, i've done three hours of prime95 with no issues but we shall see. 1.24 volts.
