I7 7700K Cooling

Hi guys,

 

I got a fresh build here and a question to ask to clear the air. Build specs are simple with a Zotac 1080Ti Amp, 32gb 3200mhz Trident Z’s (XMP enabled), I7 7700k, Corsair H110i AIO, Corsair ML120/140 case fans, and NZXT H500 (non i). 

 

I fired up the components outside the case with the cooler connected and the MB reported a temp of 39° on the CPU. Nothing in bios was altered and bios reported the fans were operating at 2300rpm. Ambient temp around this time was kind of warm at about 70-80° since we burn wood for heat. I got everything loaded into the case and mounted, managed wiring and fired it up again. Once again, same ambient, nothing in bios changed, and this time case fans were exhausting and I applied fresh thermal paste. CPU temp maintained, once again, a 39°C at idle in bios. Let it run for about 15-30 minutes and still held onto that temp. 

 

My question is, is this a typical temperature and is it normal? My main concern is when I get the OS loaded, drivers, and get gaming I’m going to see temps I don’t want. Any input would be great! 

 

Thank you!

My delidded 8700k @5ghz 1.355v idles at 35c in a 68f ambient environment.

 

I'd say your values are normal.

As above, pretty typical.

Thank you guys for the quick input. It’s a fresh rig and the temp was questionable. I was seeing some people getting 32° out of it if not a little lower at idle and about 68° at 100% load. So even at stock clock speeds and 1.208v that’s normal?

I apologize as well as this should have been in the cooling thread!
