Very bad, I'm not too sure on what CPU you have, but most are around 60C max, then it will start throttling.

It is a bad test to use in general. It runs extremely hot. What are you trying to do?

IBT is a linpack stress test. If you're testing for stability try realbench and/or aida64.

90c is hot for an i7 4790k
but check with cpuz while ibt is running

if its throttling under 4.4ghz then its too hot
