Hey guys, new here and have built lots of systems in the past. For some reason in the particular case Cooler Master H500P Mesh my cpu with my AIO set up as an exhaust is way high. No mater where I put the cool whether its in the front as an intake or on the top or back as an exhaust my CPU still idles about 50 and under load can hit up to 72 C. Anyone have any idea how/why in this case it would do that? If so any way to fix it??

Is the temperature as bad in other cases, or is this H500PM specific?

 

120/140mm AIOs are generally less efficient than 240/280/360 AIOs.

 

Push/pull config could help.

Could be a bad thermal pasta application/something like that. That's quite extreme.

 

Also, if you don't quote people, they won't get notified that you replied to their comment :) Welcome BTW!

Being that you have a fairly high idle temp it's usually due to a poor contact pressure try remounting the block and tightening the bolts in a cross pattern to ensure it's even.
