max safe liquid temp

S I have a corsair h100I v2 hooked onto a ryzen 7 2700x. under certain loads (monster hunter world being the big one) my CPU hits about 55c but what concerns me is that the liquid temp of the all in one hits 40C and the AIO fans speed up to 100%. is that for the AIO,s safety? Whats a safe temp for the AIO to hit without degrading the lifespan? funnily enough when my front panel is pulled off the AIO temp drops a degree or two consistently telling me that the airflow maybe isnt the best. i have the phanteks eclipse P400. I'm mostly just curious about the liquid temps though, is 40c safe liquid temp?

Be considered when temps are above 75c on cpu with liquid cool.

Im not so much worried about the CPU as much as the AIO, is 40C a safe liquid temp for the AIO fluid to be at?

What I’ve read is the only time in your area liquid starts to evaporate is if you times are running really really hot all the time 75c and above

40C is very good for the fluid, you want to ensure it doesn't reach past 60C mainly for the longevity of the pump.

These systems are built internally to ramp fan speeds up when liquid hits 40c (the specific AIO you have, I have as well, and hated this).  Took me about a week of researching to find a post regarding this as fact lol.  

 

Download iCUE from Corsair and put in a fan curve of your own to dismantle this issue.  I run 40% until 69c (never ever ever gets their) to ramp to 100%.

 

EDIT - that is, if you have Corsair link cable (9pin USB to micro usb) - if not, it sucks lol.

Here's ICUE's AIO "default curves" hidden values for reference:

I used them as a base for my custom loop which has the fans running of a pair of Commander Pro's.

 

NB. I wouldn't want to see the coolant temperature ever break 50°C.

Go into your BIOS and set the fans to run at 650 RPM each and forget about it

 

And I'm saying this since I dunno 6 years ago: auto controls or fan curves aren't meant for radiator fans and specially not meant for SP fans that NEED to run at a constant speed and not like a friggin rollercoaster of RPMs to be able to properly cool a radiator.
