CPU getting too hot

[Giraffackle]

It was the PUMP all along ? I KNEW IT

Oh please, we don't know that... I hope. If it was the pump I'm gonna go bang my head on a desk.  :mellow:

firstly since your pump is only the DCP 4.0 the flow rate on that pump is 800L/H and head pressure is 4.0m but they are the maximum which means it will have to be running at 12v. make sure your pump is running at 100% and if it is then i think that the pump is the issue with these temps. even with my loop and i am running overclocked CPU and GPU and i dont even get any where those temps for either chips and also check your tubing to make sure there isnt any kinks in them or anything that could slow the flow down as that is the only reason i can think of to why you are getting the temps you are getting

yeah i checked that but all i am concerned is that why my gpu's not getting hot it's only my cpu and the cpu is the one that recieves cooled water from both the rads first

lol yeah me too

and the pump is running at 100% it powered from a molex pin

It is the only logical conclusion my dear Watson

Because the pump does not have the pressure to maintain the water on your CPu and it can only maintain it at your GPU

please don't be the pump, please don't be the pump, please don't be the pump  :unsure:

cmon if it was a pump then my gpu should have burned to ash. they are r9 290x they ususally run at 95 but now they are running at 60 max and plus cpu is reciveing cold water from rads first

please don't be the pump, please don't be the pump, please don't be the pump  :unsure:

i am kinda 95% sure that it's not the pump

Because the pump does not have the pressure to maintain the water on your CPu and it can only maintain it at your GPU and that is because water is heavy

Lol, "kinda 95%"

[levsingh]

cmon if it was a pump then my gpu should have burned to ash. they are r9 290x they ususally run at 95 but now they are running at 60 max and plus cpu is reciveing cold water from rads first

and the cpu is bumping up to 95 or plus

That doesn't make much sense.

[levsingh]

Because the pump does not have the pressure to maintain the water on your CPu and it can only maintain it at your GPU and that is because water is heavy

but the cpu block is smaller than the gpu one i think it should have affected gpu not the cpu

Sorry to jump in here, but it's not the pump. No offense, but this idea is a load of bull. It's a single closed loop system, so the flow rate at any point of the system is the same as any other. The amount of water passing over every part is the same, regardless of where in the loop the part is.

What is the quickest and cheapest thing to get ? a waterblock or a pump?

So you say it is the waterblock?

i think waterblock why?

[Garuger]

i think waterblock why?

To test one of them get waterblock first i say chances are 60% to 40%(60% pump and 40% waterblock)

how about i get a good waterblock like this one http://www.scan.co.uk/products/ek-supremacy-evo-gold here it is mentioned that it has less hydraulic restrictions which help to maintain the flow in low powered pumps so it kinda supports both sides what you say?

It is so crazy that it just might work . I say go for it

[PuNkPoEtS]

@levsingh the reason the 290x or any gpu won't be that hot as they are on air is because they take to water a lot better then cpus will ever be

I didn't say anything about the pressure at different points of the loop I'm saying overall pressure look at the resistance of the blocks, radiators(even tho it will be low) and the fittings and then add it all and see how it much pressure the pump can push in comparison

Few things, what is your voltage on the CPU? Is the voltage on adaptive mode? Have you tried using different temperature monitoring software? What is the temp in the BIOS on a cold boot? If you feel the CPU block under load could you poach an egg on it? (or IR temp it)

 

This could come down to something as simple as an erroneous temp sensor, bad monitoring software, incorrect voltage settings, etc. etc.

Oh my god, just get a waterblock, the pump is finnee.

It was me that said about the pump pressure but regardless i am with you it is the PUMP
