So I've had a Corsair H115i 280mm for about 2 years now cooling my i7 6700k. I don't know what is causing the cooler not to work correctly. When on load the CPU reaches 100 Celsius and rad itself about 60, but the fans are running at max speed.
Firstly, does anybody know if the whole radiator is intended to heat up, because i can only feel heat at the beginning of the rad, the area where the warm flow of water is coming into the rad to circulate and then has to return to the CPU. The rest, about 70% of the rad is not warm at all. And i mean its gets REALLY hot at that 30ish% area.
Could the water in the cooler be blocked by something? Or what can it be because I've had it with the sh*tty rad. I'm almost on the point of just buying a new one. I'm really frustrated.
A few other things that I've made sure of:
I have checked the mount, it is properly fastened.
Thermal paste is of good quality and there is enough on.
All cables are connected. Pump is running on max RPM and fans.
What can I do?
Thanks!

I am going to hypothesize that the pump is working (due to the rpm reading) and that the idle temperatures are okayish. If you could give any other indicators such as feeling vibrations in the tubes, or hopefully the two tubes are equally warm.
One thing I would try is to see if there is any possible airlock in the pump. I don't know how the radiator is mounted, but either unmounting it and shaking it while the system is running, and also tilting the whole PC back and forth may move any air bubbles.
If the cooler is still under warranty, I would also consider contacing corsair about it since depending on what temperatures you were running routinely, you may have been suffering from evaporation/permeation of fluid.
Are both tubes supposed to be equally warm on my CPU cooler? Im not really a boffin when it comes to liquid cooling.

Only the one tube is really warm, other one is cold, Feels like ambient temp. I can feel a little bit of vibration. On my liquid cooled 1080 the tubes are equally very warm and i can feel them vibrating.

I'm thinking broken pump if it's shooting to 99°C instantly. It's possible the motor has detached from the spinning component itself. That would explain why it's still reporting that it's spinning.
How do you suggest I check what the problem is?

What fluid temperature does it report during testing?
On idle about 34 degrees. During testing temperature varies on the duration of the test. BUT I have been able to test it. When @ 80 degrees.The Radiator is at 48 degrees. This when it has ran for about 5 min.

Ok, my CPU has been overheating countless times while playing games.
Skylake i7-6700K @ 4.0Ghz (Because its overheating, used to be able to overclock to 4.5Ghz)
CPU COOLER: Corsair H115i, Water Cooling, with 2x 140mm SP140L FansThermal paste: CoolerMaster MasterGel Pro
MOBO: MSI Z170A GAMING M5I have a Corsair 760T and A LOT of airflow.
My Cpu idles on 30-40. But when stressing it with cinebench instantly jumps to 85 degrees and then a few seconds later hit 99.
It is natural that the temps jump like that?
My Liquid Cooled 1080, when stress testing it, gradually climbs up to a max of 60.
What could it be? On my iCUE settings my radiator pump runs at 3200RPM.
I've also made sure that it has enough thermal paste and that is securely fastened.

your AIO could be dying how old is it? might be time to look into a new cooler
Its about a year old now

It's possible to hear the pump. It might even have a very-very slight buzz/vibration when touching.
When I hold my hand on my 1080's liquid pipes. I can clearly feel it vibrating. But on my H115i almost nothing.

Is the 6700k stock, without multi-core enhancement? If so, those temps are way too high for that size cooler even running Prime95. I'd strongly suspect the cooling as I know you can do better than that with a Hyper 212. Recheck the mount, make sure the pump is running. Feel it when it is running, is the body of the radiator the same temperature on both inlet and outlet ports? If there is a big difference, you might have had enough fluid loss for it to stop working well.
Hey man! Well in my iCUE software it tells me that the pump is running at 3200 RPM. Would that be trustworthy to tell that the pump is running? Or how should I check it?

probably not true, i had an i5 4440 runing in a small case that waas overheating it and after i delidded it it stopped running at 100C and auto shutting down, now it runs at 80c with aida 64 and the only thing i changed was the TIM between the IHS and the DIE
I want to delid my CPU, but dont want to buy the delid gadget. Also can i use my CoolerMaster Mastergel Pro on my CPU?

I mean, if you delid it the temps would obviously drop, but it's still weird that it's getting so hot with your AIO and with your airflow.
It is unlocked so I assume it's overclocked, have you tried to remove the overclock and checking what happens? Maybe the CPU has worn a bit so the volts could be overheating it.
Well it's just boosting to 4.2. I can remember I could overclock it to 4.6 and it wouldn't go over 70 degrees, that was about 6 months ago.

Hi everyone,
I've been having alot of overheating on my i7 6700k. it hits 99 degrees on max load.
Let me explain this better: My CPU idles at about 25-35. But for example I used Prime95 for this test, It would instantly jump to 80 and then in a few seconds hit 99.
What could it be?
I have a H115i Liquid Cooler and LOTS of airflow. I also use CoolerMaster MasterGel Pro which has a Thermal Conductivity of >8 W/m-K. I have also made sure that it is well spread. My liquid cooled 1080 doesn't go above 60 degrees on full load and its overclocked. Motherboard: MSI Z170 Gaming M5.
Can anybody explain what is happening here?

Yes. I used the same Deep Cool thermal paste on my h115i and switched to kyronaut.
The temp's more beautiful now. Me like.Holy shit, what luck I found a person with a similar setupI have to ask you then.
How are your temps now?? before and after
What CPU are you running?
I want to compare.
Thanks a billion!

Hey, guys
As the title says, Would i benefit in getting Kryonaut?
ATM I have cheap Deep Cool Z5 Thermal Paste on my i7-6700K, I also have a corsair H115i CPU cooler.
The Deep Cool has a Thermal Conductivity of >1.46 W/m-K while the kryonaut has 12.5 W/m-K.
Thanks

Sounds pretty normal for a non-delidded skylake to me? 75 is not overheating.
But the thing is that i always overclocked it to 4.6ghz and was at ~60, but now at stock its at ~75.

Hello everyone,
Firstly my PC Specs
Skylake i7-6700K @ 4.0Mhz 8MB Cache
CPU COOLER: Corsair H115i, Water Cooling, with 2x 140mm SP140L FansMOBO: MSI Z170A GAMING M5
RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB DDR4 @ 2133Mhz
GPU: MSI GTX 1080 SeaHawk X Liquid Cooler by Corsair
SSD: Samsung 960 EVO 250GB1st HDD: 1TB Western Digital Caviar Blue
2nd HDD: 1TB Westren Digital Caviar Green
PSU: EVGA Supernova G2 650W 80 Gold+
CASE: Corsair 760T Black with 2 AF140's Corsair Red LED fans(Front), 1 Corsair AF120 Performance(Bottom), 1 Corsair AF140L(Rear) and my Liquid Cooler mounted at the top of my case with 2 Corsair SP140's.Now the problem is that my CPU keeps overheating. I have a few questions.
1. Hits ~75 degrees on full load(Stock), is that normal with a cooler like mine? at Full fan speed and pump speed.
On the Corsair LINK application, my radiator only hits ~43 degrees at max cpu load while my cpu is at ~75.
My temps idle on ~35 degrees but if I start a CPU intensive app, it instantly jumps to ~65 until it reaches a max of ~75.
2. Could it be the pump? or what? The pump is 2 years old.
3. Could it be my thermal paste? I applied Deep Cools' Z5 which only has a Thermal Conductivity of >1.46 W/m-K. More about the thermal paste here: http://www.deepcool.com/product/dcoolingaccessory/accessory/2013-12/48_653.shtml
I have reapplied my thermal paste a lot of times with the Z5 and made sure its evenly spread.
As I remembered I could always overclock and it would not even go above ~60 degrees, now i cant even overclock and it hits ~75 degrees.
I've come to the conclusion that its my thermal paste which is the problem. But do you guys think it is?
Thanks

Found the problem. My cable. Bought a new cat 5e cable and it worked BUT when I tested it with my previous cable that caused the problem, it worked again?! So yeah I guess if you the same problem as me get a new cable.

Yesterday, I was using my computer normally, no issues at all. My network was working perfectly fine.
Today I came home and starting doing work on my PC(Windows 10). Then suddenly my internet stopped working. My phone still worked perfectly fine on Wi-Fi. So then I see that my network icon has a red cross and kept changing from the cross icon and the yellow attention sign uninterruptedly. So I started troubleshooting with no success. I came across a forum of someone having the same issue. The user said you should change your Speed and Duplex to 10mbps Full/Half Duplex. That worked. BUT. Now I'm not using the full potential of my network. I have a 30mb fiber line. So can anyone help me with this issue? To turn it back to 100mbps Full/Half Duplex?
Thanks everyone
EDIT: My motherboard: MSI GAMING M5 Z170
Router TP-LINK TL-WR840N

Now that you removed the cooler, yeah
If you hadnt, it was fine
I removed it because for some reason my temps were so unstable and fluctuating. For example It kept going from 40 to 56 degrees and jumping back.
I have thermal paste at hand so its not a problem, thanks anyways guys

Hi guys,
I have a big problem that i've been trying to fix for 3 days now.
When I plug my ethernet cable into my pc it doesn't pick up.
What happend is that I unplugged my pc's cable to insert into my laptop(i wanted to test something). So the internet cable is working on the laptop but when I tried to reconnect my pc it didn't pick it up. So I tried to run trouble
shooter, it said i needed to plug in a cable or the cable might be broken. So i kept trying and trying.
I decided to reinstall my drivers, that didnt work.
So i tried reinstalling my windows after trail and error. That didnt work either.
Motherboard: MSI Z170 gaming m5(it uses killer internet and not your typical internet controller)
I had a usb to ethernet adapter, that didnt work either! It doesnt pick up the internet.
If you guys need any other information please just ask me and thanks in advance!

Hey guys,
I've doing research on what SSD I should get for gaming.
I would like to put my OS also on it.
128GB is minumum, even if it is 128 thats fine.
My budget is about $60-80.
Thanks in advance!

750W would have been ideal, but it should still work.
Are you sure it will work because im tempted to order it now.
Is my H115i dying?
in Custom Loop and Exotic Cooling

Yes can confirm the one tube is very hot and the other relatively cool.
So I've resorted in bumping the rad several times and its seems the CPU temp dipped instantly! Its at about 71 celsius now running the aida64 CPU,FPU stress test. Imma keep hitting it seems to be working But yeah wtf?? The temps dropped almost instantaneously while stress testing!?
Also feels like more of the rad is being warmed up. Very wierd, Could've have been a airbubble?
