The i7 4770k I purchased is running a bit hot for me when at 100% usage.
When compressing videos in Virtualdub I notice the temps are around 74-76C on some of the cores.
These are around the same temps I get with Prime95.
I've tried Intel Burn Test and Aida64 for testing my CPU and those bumped it to 92C.
Keep in mind I am using one of the best CPU heatsink air coolers on the market (Noctua NH-D14).
This is with only 1.2v on the CPU. If I used the heatsink included in the box it would easily run 15-20C hotter.
What I am asking is if it's possible to RMA my CPU for this reason?
When looking up the info on the box it says my Warranty lasts until August 2017.
