VRM overheating and 2990wx overclock

Curent setup:

CPU: 2990wx clocked to 3.7GHz

Mobo: x399 aorus pro

GPU: 2x 2080 asus gaming oc rtx (nvlink sli)

RAM: 4x 2933Mhz 32gb

Cooling for CPU: Hailea Ultra 1500 HC waterchiller 790W (GPU waterblocks Will be added)

Block: XSPC Raystorm Neo TR4

Storage: 2x m.2 970 PRO 512gb (in raid)

Powersupply: 1300W seasonic gold

case: big tower phaentooks pro (without panels)

 

Problem:

I'm having bunch of problems overclocking the CPU to more than 3.7 and having it stable. IF I set it to more then 3.8 and run stress tests the PC will shut off. All the temperatures are great only one is really troubling me. The temp IRF IR 35201 when running aida 64 extreme can go to 115C and above after running for only 7min (The CPU Tctl is max 67C and Tdie is max 40C) The PC is in an airconditioned server room with a 2 120mm on top, 3x 4500 40x40 fans on top of VRMs, 120mm on the back of the mobo, 140mm on back and front and the case is open. Am I experiencing limitations of the motherboard or is there any solution for this? 

 

The PC is used for rendering in VRAY.

 

Thanks in advance

You could lower switching frequency but that would also have downsides, not sure what else you could do except pull back on the OC.

8700K @ 5.2ghz 1.29V, 4x8 Rev.E @ 4040 13-20-20-39 1.7V.

Limit by board. There's a very good reason for MSI to launch a 16 phase 70A each, while your board only has 10 phase 50A each.

It sounds like you don't have a budget anyways so just get the MEG creation board?
 

 

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

if you want proper overclockig of the 2290wx, a meg creation is necessary

 

this one won't be any better than you have currently

The MEG creation was built for the 32 core CPU, but what's another $500 when you're in that deep?

Other than the Zenith Extreme Alpha which also has 16 powerstages, like the MSI, everything else is no better than your current board. That cost even more.

What RAM should be along with this build? 

im gonna switch to the MSI Board.  The RAM I have is Like two years old CL17 2666MHZ clocked to 2933 for the past two months on this new build. I just dont want to bottleneck the system.
