Just installed corsair H100i, temp question.

The temps jumps to 82c(prime95) in about 15 minutes with 1.27v at 4500mhz, 3700k, Is this normal for this cooler or should I reseat the cooler?

I don't know what is normal, but I know that shouldn't be normal.

That's 20C higher than mine with an Antec Kuhler 620, so it does seem really high.

Though I do blend, could be why.

Nvm it seems this is normal for my cooler and cpu.

You got it in push pull?

Unless it's 150 F in your room, that's too high. Reseat the CPU block.

seems like my temps are close.

What is Tjmax for your chip? I like running Prime95 with fixed FFT size of 200, which is basically a worst-case scenario, to gauge hottest temps at a desired voltage.FaustArp

Hydro coolers are nice aesthetically, but it's not far off from a Hyper 212+ or Evo. Like Shadow said, Ivy thermal sucks. Do the clamp, thermal paste trick and put your own.

Looks fine for ivyJigglyWiggly_

How do you have your fans set up? Are you using Corsair's software?

I'm curious if the NZXT software will work with the H80i hardware? I'm not a very big fan of the newer i-series Corsair liquid coolers (H100i/H80i), mainly because the software can be unpredictable at times. I'm running an older version of it because the latest firmware screws things up for me. Even so, every once in a while, the CPU isn't detected, thus no temps are given and the fans won't kick into higher gears when needed. It doesn't happen often, but it's frustrating nonetheless.

What are the fans running at? It does seem a bit high compared to my 3570K when I have it at 4.5GHz. I think I only reached 70C during Intel Burn test. horgen123

delid your 3770K and you'll see around 20-25c temp diffrence

I know if I go above 4.3 Ghz I see major temp increase even without changing voltage. It is not worth it imo. Right now my favorite benchmark is Intel Burn Test. It is even more demanding than prime95.

I would recomend MX-4 or better yet Coollaboratory Liquid Ultra

you have to be very careful while you are doing it tho, takes time and patience to delid without error, one little mistake and $300 is gone in trash.
