I have a Intel® Core™ i7-4790K with corsair H100i and it reaches 100-80 celsius when i try to load CPU with prime95

When i try to play lets say "guild wars 2" on the lowest graphics it reaches to 70+ celsius

is it normal or there is a problem with the CPU?

Hello Davepinhas,

The temperature your processor is reaching is higher than expected when using the system normally. I recommend you doing some troubleshooting steps mentioned here:

Please note that we are also handling this in a different post so if after doing those steps issue continues, I recommend you posting your issue here:
