Gskill RAM reaches 55-60*C during stress tests and in games.

Case: Phanteks P500A.

CPU cooler: Noctua D15S

CPU: Ryzen 5900x

Motherboard Asus B550-F

RAM: Gskill Trident Z 3200@14 DOCP (not overclocked)

GPU: RTX 380

PSU: Corsair rm850x

 

3 intake fans, 2 exhaust on top and 1 exhaust on the back.

 

Today when I was playing Cyberpunk I checked HFInfo and noticed that both of my DIMM modules are at 55*C each.

I asked around and people say that even overclocked memory at 1.5 v won't reach that much and I'm basically fucked.

 

I decided to see how far my temperatures on DIMM will go and ran TestMem5 + Furmark for 15 minutes and during that time the temperatures climbed to 60*C and they keep increasing. I'm sure if I didn't pause the test it would go even higher.

My RAM doesn't have any RGB so I can't turn it off to get better cooling. Also my CPU is really really hot. I probably lost silicon loterrey but in Cyberpunk it sits around 75-76*C while GPU around 65-67.

 

 

What options do I have? What do I need to change? 

Switching to AIO (For example Arctic Liquid Freezer ii 360) can make ram cooler in this current setup?

That's hot.

 

Not in a sexy way either.

 

I would start by turning those top fans into intakes instead of exhausts.

 

And maybe take off your PCI slot covers, see how that works.

Ram just does what Ram does, sits there passively cooling.
Only get's hot when you start using mass voltages and overclocking. It can literally just sit there day in and day out.
Nothing to worry about.

Its still hot, to me anyways. I am running 4 sticks overclocked and over volted and they are at 25c right now. Hard load @ 30 😄

 

I paid a lot of money for my ram lol.. I'm not going to let them roast at 60c.

 

But that's just me..

My 3200c14 at 4200c17 1.5v (now 1.45 but was testing 1.5v)

Never broke 32*c in my room.

Idles at sub30*c.

 

60*c seems a bit much..

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz
