Temperature difference between cooler and cpu
Thank you. However, is the temperature difference between my CPU and cooler (when it is under load) normal? I know the water will absorb a lot of energy do the hydrogen bonds so I would hope my cooler doesn't rise to 50°C that quick but I just figured my water block would have be more thermally conductive, than letting my cpu get up to 50°C pretty much instantly when using the cpu burner. If that all makes sense... I considered the thermal paste not performing well but I don't know what to look for when specifically dealing with thermal paste.
The temps you're getting are totally normal, especially given how fast the CPU is going. A lot of people nowadays have started scoffing at 4.5GHz for some reason. I have my 2600K at "only" 4.0GHz because of impending summer but it's still crazyfast. 4.5 is a mad overclock, and the temps you're getting are actually really really impressive. CPUs only start getting in trouble once you get to about 90°C, 50 is really nice.
