Obviously I'm very new here so please be patient with me while I work out my newbie-ness.
Thanks so much for your response kajabla!I think the OP was referring to the heatsink/fan combination as the CPU fan.I would check to see if the heatsink is secured properly.
So you tweak it up to your chips capabilities. well im running it at 1.32 volts and it seems to be doing great.
50C isn't inherently bad depending on a long, long list of variables. and on idle its 38-39C and on load its 40-41C. Do you know if it is easy to link the corsair pipes to the EKWB?
Hi!
Just curious, can the stress tests be wrong? Yeah from the other threads about people's AIO header and CPU header shutting down which causes overheating really quickly is not good is it.
Those are the options to lower the temps.If you lower the voltage you might get a unstable OC and need to lower clocks as well.I lower my CPU full load temps from 80 degrees C to around 60 degrees C by switching some cooling in my case.Maybe you can increase your coolers performance by increasing radiator fan speeds.The fans already run quite noisy when I'm pushing the CPU.

maybe I should should just get a whole cooling system from EKWB if i plan to cool everything..Either increase cooling or lower voltage.
70c or 70f If 70f, that's awesome! Because read something about overclocking before you do it.
It would be a good idea to clean the old thermal paste and get some new thermal paste when you do this.
overclocked it to 3.1 ghz jumped 1 whole ghz! I've had some experience overclocking my CPU … I did read a bit, not as much as I should have, although I was aware that I was not pushing this particular CPU too much by clocking it 4ghz and keeping the voltage lowish (1.2).
I was a total noob when I got the system, just knew the software i work with.

Don't try to limit the fan speed; it's just keeping your cpu from shutting down!
Just curious what other factors I should be looking out for.You should be the same temperature at idle stock as overclocked, and it should be 5-15c above ambient.Thanks. Your CPU is well in the normal range of operation and doing just fine.
the h100i gt or the h110iThanks for the tips, I think you are right about the cooler...and about the 110i upgrade you suggested, I was also thinking of cooling my graphics card using an EKWB water block so I can OC that too.
And I did run all the stress tests for 6 + hours (i know pro's ppl like to do 24 plus hours)...but if i'm honest i had no friggin idea what all the data i was putting in meant. Idle temp is around 35 degrees Gaming temp is around 60-70 degrees Here are a number of games that I've tested so far too: Devil May Cry 5: 56 degrees PUBG: 64-72 degrees The Division 2: 60-65 degrees League of Legends: 60 degrees
Well this is were notation would be great! Perhaps the cooler was bumped when the new ram was being installed.
Ideally would like a quieter system, so might swap out the watercooler and perhaps even the PSU at a later date, would be nice to get the cpu up to 4.2) and have the possibility of SLI on the graphics card. If temps are stable/under 90 for say 6 hours does this mean that your configurations are ok?
Aiden-Dakari :
Since I built it i've learnt so much and there are obvious things that I should have done differently.Im sorry in advance, but im gonna be rude.
I have a liquid corsair 80i cooler.
It wouldn't be going crazy if it wasn''t important to keep the cpu cool.Models of your case, processor, gpu and everything?
I had the system built through a company, I now wonder whether they didn't install things properly.p.s i used the settings in this guide, although have a slightly different Asus Board (I have the X99-E WS) - New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castAll things overclocking go here.
First, if you have a $400 Intel chip and you just built it I'm going to assume you have an i7-5820K. (Noob Q) Close. That's why you can't/shouldn't copy someone else's numbers. Are all fans operating and clean of dust?
