Hello I recently bought a new computer and everything seems fine except when I stress test the cpu gets real hot..

soo idle temps are around 25 - 30 but usually sits on 27 not moving.

and when gaming i haven't seen it go above 60

then I stress test and every core is above 90 all high 90s =l

specs:
i7 8700k
h115I cooler
asus prime z370-a
gskill 3k 16gb ram
corsair 750 80+g psu
500gb 960 evo


I've tried reattaching the cooler with new thermal paste that didn't work although I could probably use some better quality stuff maybe...
I tried turning off multicore enhancement...
my vcore was only at like 1.1

I noticed my cpu fan wasnt going above 1400 even at 100% load which is weird because I have it set to full speed in the bios and performance on Corsair link.
pumps fine at 2800

I've been reading different things and fiddling around with settings.
just not sure what to do really..

only thing I can think of that I havent done is update the bios
