I'm just using the stock heatsink and thermal compound and the tabs are on tight.

I deleted the Gigabyte OC software but my CPU still runs up to 38xx MHz on startup. Is it normal to go above the rated 3.4ghz from factory?

Is there any Temp monitor programs that will display while playing? I'm using everest and the OSD doesn't work while I'm in game.

I ran OCCT for like 5 mins and my core temps hit 89 degrees which I'm assuming is too hot. It also said 78 degrees @ CPU.
