Understood. While saving for a new cooler for my 4790k (using my H110 on the GPU), running the stock cooler with ANTEC FIRMULA 7 paste caused it to reach 99°C after roughly half an hour. GTA appears to generate more heat from components than load tests. Proceed with caution and monitor temperatures if you're using a stock cooler. Now I have a pure rock and it reaches around 70°C.

Is it a joke about adding a CPU and a stock cooler together?

Playing serious games on a stock cooler is quite amusing.

It seems like the problem might be isolated to your side.

The main concern is why you're using a stock cooler for a CPU that's not a high-end model.

It seems like you've been okay for a while, but there might be something hidden going on. Are you certain no extra processes are active?

The procedure is incorrect. The cooling system should remain cool, not run hot. There may have been an error with the cooler installation.
