Hello everyone,
My CPU is running very hot on load when running prime 95 v289. I am using CPU ID HWmonitor to monitor the temperature. Both my CPU and GPU are at default factory speed. I have only manually changed the RAM frequency and Voltage to 3200Mhz/1.35V.
PC Specs:
Case: Silverstone TJ08-E
CPU: Core i7 6700K
MB: Asus Maximus VIII Gene
RAM: G.Skill Trident Z @ 3200hz
GPU: MSI HD 6870
Cooler: Scythe Kotetsu
SSD: Samsung EVO 250GB
PSU: Corsair RM 550W
OS: Windows 7 - 64 bit

Edit: I have updated the link.
My stock Core V is 1.296V and the temps were too high.
I have reapplied the thermal paste again and spread it this time before fitting the heat sink and in the bios changed the AI OC tuner to XMP and everything default which seems to have given me better temps.
Below are the results with case intake fan at high setting. Ambient temp at 21-22 C. All test were done for 15 mins apart from the stock setting prime 95 test which got too hot as soon as I ran the test.
