You have a Haswell refresh, though. I'm worried that with a 1ghz overclock that I'm hitting the limits of the TIM under the heat spreader. Have you ever delidded your processor?

so does the spike means that it jumps to 70c then back down or just sitting at that temp?
Since the previous cooler didn't perform this way, the chance is that the block and CPU IHS aren't contacting well.
Before you disassemble the loop, try change your D5 speed to increase your flowrate. If increasing flowrate doesn't give you any change in temp, I would tear the whole loop down to inspect.delidding isn't magical, I remember reading a report on anandTech saying the IHS of Devil's Canyon is too thin so contact between die isn't ideal. Not sure if it's the same story to Haswell.
Jumps to 70 and stays there. The instant I stop the test, it drops down to 23 again.
I've played with the pump running it at max and 3300RPM and less, nothing made a difference in cooling. Leaving it at 3300RPM now since it's the quietest with good flow.

Are you sure that you have good contact betwen your cpu and waterblock?
98% certain. Same method I've always used. And the idle temps (2 degrees above ambient) tell me that it's good. But I may be wrong. It's happened before.
-
So I have a question. I've got a 4670K Overclocked to 4.7ghz at 1.3 vcore.
I just setup a custom watercooling loop - EKWB EVO block (with EK's recommended 1150 plate and jet) and I have a 140mm hardware labs black ice radiator, and a 280mm rad of the same. So PLENTY of cooling. D5 pump/res combo.
Now for my question - When I start AIDA my temp explodes from 23 idle to 70 under load. (FPU only - maximum heat generation) I don't have any data to confirm this, but my old Corsair H90 didn't make it spike like that that I can remember. Is the heatspreader lid THAT shitty on these? Is delidding worth it?
-
This is going to sound really mean, and I don't mean it as such, but are you sure you're twisting it the correct direction?
I've never had a pump be that difficult to take apart.

From dealing with oil-coated parts in an automotive application, I'd recommend picking up Circuit Board cleaner. It's in an aerosol can.
Hang your parts to let it "dry," then hit it with some of the aerosol. Let dry again. Repeat until clean.

Status update AF
On 2/2/2016 at 0:38 PM, Bob Jim said:'update status'
Status update: COMPLETE - SHIPPED. My excitement builds.
Planning on putting the 280 in the front pulling in, and the 140 in the back where the AIO currently is.
Still not sure what coolant to go with... Gonna be getting rid of the HDD cages, the two fans on the bottom, and obviously the AIO cooler.

A 140 and 280mm rad just for the cpu..... are you overclocking a 9590?
Hahaha, I'll be adding my graphics card to it eventually.
My main goal is to have no fan spinning above 800 RPM. This should accomplish that pretty easily.
And yes, I'm checking the status quite often. SICK OF SEEING "PENDING"

Today, I ordered the start of my water cooling setup.
EK XRES 140 Revo D5 Vario pump/res combo
EK Supremacy EVO Nickel-plated block
Black Ice Nemesis 140 and 280 radiators
Plenty of EK HDC fittings and Bitspower PETG 12mm tubing
All the other misc stuff to stuff this in my R5. Still haven't decided on a coolant yet. Just going distilled and PTNuke until I decide.
Yeah, it's going to be CPU only for now, and I know this is overkill, but I'll really be able to push my overclock! haha
Ordered it all from Performance-PCs this afternoon and I can't wait to get it, and couldn't wait to share.

I'm very happy with Astrill.
-
I know on my old 8900GT, if I'd have multiple monitors on it, it would ramp up the core clock for some reason. Take it down to single monitor, and see if the core clock will idle down to where it should be.
What driver are you using?
-
http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/cryorig-a40-and-a80-series-hybrid-liquid-cooler.html
It's definitely an Asetek, so it'll be the exact same radiator and block as the H110, and Kraken X61 which are both Asetek, too.
I'd say go for it.
-
OP, it may be worth taking your cooler off your card, cleaning it well, and re-applying new good thermal compound.
-
Looks to be quality to me. Seems to use an Asetek pump.
I'd rock it.
-
I like the maybe part. We might fix the problem, but we´re not sure yet.
I'd imagine they're saying maybe since this is a beta driver.

It completely depends on the circumstances, but I understand.
My daily beater is mostly short trips. It's a POS Chevy Blazer but I change the oil on it usually around 1500 miles. I get funny looks, but hey - the truck is picky, apparently. I get a little bit of piston slap when the oil gets past 1500 miles.

I got this mouse for the same price on Black Friday from Best Buy.
It's a great mouse, but a little smaller than I'd like.
-
I'd skip both of those. Much better fans out there than these.
I have the Corsairs--I got a 2-pack for $20 shipped on Amazon. They're alright, but definitely not as good as I'd like. At 50% or lower, they're decently quiet. Anywhere above that and they're definitely noisy.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA85V36V6187 A friend ran these and was pretty happy.
I'd just ditch the LED fans, and put LED accent lights if you really need the red lighting. It's pretty difficult to get actually good fans that light up pretty colors.

I'm really not a fan of the "thin fan THICK fan" look of the Cryorig.
That being said, I don't like the look of the 212, or most air coolers, honestly.
-
Do you have to worry about the AIO cooler freezing? Just curious what they use for fluid in those.

...Becuase you knowing what goes into PC is important for automotive industry. Sorry, but they are looking for electronics engineer and software engineers. It requires more than such general knowledge you already have.
If you want to mention it in hobby category, I say I'm into computers. Nothing more.
Oh, wow, Mr. Super Stalker. Please, since you apparently know me, please tell me all about my experience. (Hint, it's further down this post.)
And thanks for your help with the actual question I asked in the post! :rolleyes:
Take this test

Keep in mind its a bit harder then just GPU goes into PCI slot but its still not super difficult. Check out professor messer he has a free video study guide. its a good starting point
I've already got my A+, CCNA, and MCSA. Majored in Electrical and Computer Engineering, minor in Computer Science. But thanks.
I was literally just looking for someone who's good with words. But it's all good. Had a coworker help me out.
Here is a copy of my CV. It should give you some general ideas on how to structure your CV as you being to move from one career into another. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll be more than happy to answer them.

Thank you. I'll look it over.

Well you need real life experience to get what you have now. how much do you make at the dealership? its going to be hard to match that right off the bat.
Ha, I'm a parts peon. "Big Dealership Buxx" isn't in my vocabulary.

So I'm updating my resume, and trying to get the hell out of the automotive industry. Automotive was my fall-back growing up, and a part-time gig through college. I got roped into a dealership...... blah blah blah. I want out.
So. My question:
How the heck would I say (in a super-awesome buzzword-y way) that I have excellent knowledge of and I closely follow the computer hardware industry?
My brain is fried from dealing with these braindead BMW customers all day. <_<
(apologies to BMW owners on this board)
New watercooling setup completed, temps spike HIGH
in Custom Loop and Exotic Cooling

The ports on the block are in the correct order. I tightened the hold-downs on the board with a pliers.
Still getting 27 degree idle, and spiking to 70-75 the instant I start Aida64's FPU load. Temps are around 60 when I do the full suite of CPU, FPU, and Cache. The second I stop either test, the temps instantly drop down to 28-30c again.
