So I built a PC by my self for the first time February 2016. I was using an intel stock cooler (copper) not recommended I know but it was until I got a better cooler. Turns out I didn't fully clip on one of the latches on the Cooler, it wasn't pushed in all the way. I am using a Cryorig M9i now since I won't overclock yet. However I get bad stuttering on a lot of games every few seconds.
List of things I already did.
1) fresh OS install
2) got new HDD
3) got replacement MSI GTX 970
4) got replacement Motherboard
But issue still happens in most games. Should I RMA my i7 6700k? Could it be that when the fan wasn't on right and it was reaching 100c it damaged something? Hence the stuttering in game? It ran that hot for an entire year.
NOTE/EDIT: My Specs are on my signature
