10600KF @ 5.1Ghz is a 230W inferno, how to cool????

[MrConcrete04]

Hello world,

I have a 10600kf and I am running a bit of an OCing battle cos we have the same chips and I am running into a hell of a cooling bottleneck. I have tried both a NH-D15 and an Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360... neither could tame the beast temps were at alsmost at 100C even with the fans going full blast (both in a Corsair 4000D airflow). What could I do to reduce temps?

 

Thank You,

Well how much voltage are you pushing through the chip? The liquid freezer II 360 is one of the best coolers out there so it doesn't get better without doing custom loops or ln2.

deliding is an option if you want to risk it

1.5v cos Im trying to get 5.2GHz stable

Yeah no wonder it is doing that be prepared to toast that cpu tho. It's pretty much at it's limits and unless you do exotic cooling there is no way it will go higher with that voltage going in.

That's not a voltage you should run for daily OC. It's way too high, you risk a CPU degradation.

I mean this leans more to just straight up dead cpu territory. 1.45v is considered the absolute max for non daily oc's even.

As I said, its just a small OC battle me and my friend are doing

Either way, you will not get more out of the CPU on air/water if you're already at 1.5V. There is little more you can do for cooling unless you want to delid the CPU, even that will help only a little bit with temps at those voltages.

Yeah you said so we are just warning you that if you keep on trying it might just die or become unstable at those clocks. You pretty much are well past the limit of safe oc and are at the hard limit of your current options so again exotic cooling is all you can do.

would cutom watercooling help? cos my case has decent radiator support

No. You don't understand. With these voltages you're creating such a hot spot in a tiny area that you can't simply cool it well enough on water/air. You need to go sub zero.

The 230w isn't hard to cool, but the 1.5v through a 14nm part is.

Ice water bucket for the aio for battle win. Not really a long term solution.

custom loop is better than the arctic freezer, no doubt. might get temps down abit

still 

1,5v? ur insane
