CPU/Cinebechn - 127C

[Maximus89]

Hi there, 

 

I am a complete newb to the PC community, so figured this might be the best place to ask the question. - apologies if i have not added to the correct topic. 

 

I was running Cinebench to see what sort of performance i was getting, the CPU temp seemed to spiked to 127 ^oC, i understand it was under 100% load but i had previously read you want to avoid the temps going over 100 ^oC. so i am curious if it means there is an underlying problem or is this expected as normal. and even since the cinebench has finished, the temp seems to randomly spike back to 127^oC for a split second randomly. 

 

Your help is much appreciated!

There's no chance it went past 100C event, most likely you want to keep it below 90C at least.

Something is just wrong with that reading.

What's your case and CPU cooler?

CPU coolers i the corsair H150i and the case is the Corsair 570X. 

 

i have 3 intake fans on the rad at the front of the case, and 3 exhaust fans, 2 on the top and 1 at the rear of the case.

 

i can run it again and screen shot the results, i cant work out why its hitting such a high temp

Your PC would've shut down long before the CPU would have reached 127C. It's just a sensor misreading, either on the motherboard's part (faulty sensor), or just on Corsair Link's part. Check if the same temps show up in HWMonitor/HWiNFO/Aida64. If they do, then it'd lead me to believe that the actual sensor is at fault.

Did you take off the plastic cover that was on the AIO?

And that case is going to run very hot unless you remove the front glass panel, and if your radiator is against a glass panel it's going to run hot as well.

Check per core temperature, if it's only 1 or 2 going that high then it's just faulty sensors.

Hi all, i re-ran and monitored using HWMonitor and all the temps on the CPU were fine and the package temps were fine as well. 

 

seems to be a fault in the link software picks up much higher temps. as an example HWMonitor cpu temps didnt go above 60 but on link they hit 79/80 this time round.

 

there is also a faulty sensor that i installed with the commander pro, this seems to be picking up really high temps on link but in HWM there is none even close.

 

Thanks for your help.
