CPU running at 115°C

[Pauze]

I’m rather unsure as to what could be causing this. I’m pretty sure it’s either a CPU issue or a cooling issue. I am able to run games and recording with OBS at 250,000 bitrate without any issues whatsoever, however my CPU has been running at 115°C according to bios, and will run at that in bios. After leaving it off for a while it will gradually build up in heat but I have yet to see it surpass 115°C. I just replaced the thermal compound on my PC and that improved its preformance however it did not change the heating issue as far as I can tell. I’ve also noticed that my computer will blue screen when I open Google Chrome, usually giving me the stop code: “WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR”

 

This PC is a brand new build that I put together at the beginning of February. Here is the parts list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dcmNhy 

 

I will also add a photos of my radiator and the inside of my PC.

 

Thanks for the help!

double check your under-use temps using afterburner or another monitoring software.

I suspect the temp you're reading is the socket temp and not the cpu temp, but dear god if that is the cpu temp then absolutely stop what you're doing and shut down your computer because you're going to kill that cpu very quickly.

Pump probably failed....

It should be doing a tj max thermal shutdown right away as soon as it hits 105C

if it really is the cpu temp, then that is probably the issue.

I’ll look into it and reply. According to BIOS my temperature has been at 115°C, I don’t really want to boot my computer anymore, is there another way I can check?

How can I confirm/deny that it did fail?

Just feel the tubes or the block on your AIO. If there's vibrations from the tubes or you can feel liquid moving, the pump mostly likely isn't dead. If you don't feel anything, well, RIP.

if you're sure your reading the cpu temp and not other component temps, then yeah. don't bother booting. as @KingCry your pump on your AIO probably failed.

Had the same thing happen to me only a couple weeks ago so its not totally unheard of.

Best way to tell if its the AIO is to Swap another cooler on and see if the temps go way way back down. If you didnt get a stock cooler because your got a k series cpu, then head over to a retailer and try to buy about the cheapest socket compatible cooler you can get, and give that a shot.

115C would have thermal shutdown your CPU already, but then Asrock has problems with this function on AM4 so maybe the same problem exists on 9th gen as well?

 

to test  whether the temperature sensor is working or not, try shutdown the system for a while so it gets cool, then turn it on while your finger touches the back of the socket without touching any components (i.e. finger directly on the PCB). If the CPU is at 115C then your finger should at least feel hot.

With the system on place your finger tips on the pump or a mechanics trick I use is a screw driver and place it on the pump and place the other end against your ear, we do it at the shop at my work to help isolate noise on pulleys when motors are running.

115C sounds like a broken temp sensor to me.

I booted it up to test and it is warm. My entire room has a sort of static smell to it now.

I couldn’t feel anything on the actual pipes(?) that connect the pump to the radiator however i could feel the pump vibrating a little.

Booted it up to try feel for liquid flowing so here is a better response

The sensor for the board might be totally broken :c 

If it is I couldn't recommend you continuing to use that board honestly and if your able to ask for an exchange.

Use the screwdriver method and I didn’t hear anything

Do you have another system that you can make a OS drive with? The fastest way is to get into Windows (could be installation from some other system) and use HWinfo's sensor mode (an app you have to download elsewhere). It shows all sorts of temperature sensors and can tell whether it's just one defective sensor.

I could, what do you recommend I do?

install a fresh OS into the new build's boot drive, create an account, download and run HWinfo's sensor mode (prove that it works), then boot into that with the new build, go to HWinfo's sensor mode, and read the temperatures.

Assuming it is, can I still run the computer until I get said exchange?

Probably not as they will want the board for testing to replicate the issue before issuing the exchange.

If I were to run it a few more times though it would have no effect on the other components though?
