i7 7700k hitting temperatures of 87 degrees celsius? Please no delidding suggestions

Troubleshooting

Hi all,

I've just downloaded DOOM on my newly built PC which has an ASUS Strix GTX 1070 and a STOCK i7 7700k (about a week old), I have HW monitor open in the background.

After about 30 minutes of playing DOOM, I exited the game saw that my cores were hitting upwards of 80 degrees celsius. Is this right?

I've attached a pic, the first row is what the value is now (it's low because I left the game), the second row is the minimum and the last is the maximum value:

If this is what I think it is, what should I do? This can't be healthy for the CPU.

I won't be delidding because this is my first PC and enough has gone wrong already

Edit: My cooler is an arctic i32 at max speed
