MSI MAG 240R and AMD Ryzen 5900

[Majorpayne]

Good Morning all,

 

Does anyone know if the MSI MAG 240R AIO is sufficient cooling to have a all core 4.0 base clock overclock? My temps are sitting at 44 degrees idle and then when doing something like (some) gaming can spike all the way to 94 degrees. I already ruled out air flow as i removed the front and top of the case to allow more airflow. The temps dropped 20 degree just in that alone.

Which way is your rad oriented?

picture of the system can say more than a 1000 degrees

It should be able to run it. I have a regular heat sink on my 5900 and it is enough cooling for it. I would imagine an AIO should have no problem, right  @NorKris?

Rad is at the top of the Case in a Push configuration. I have also updated my sig to show my new system

this one is only worth 250 degrees. sorry for the bad pic. I have also updated my sig to show my new system

Darkest pic ever  looks like you have ur AIO set up for the highest temps possible  
Can i see the front of ur pc? 

 

This is a test done by YT casebycase. The words Front or top is there the Rad of the AIO is.
you have pic 9.

Ofc. as shown in all testing. How ever I'm concerned about the number of ppl reporting high temps on the "In Rad pump" AIO's. Maybe they are trash, I wonder...
its also worth noting the Top mounted as exhaust as that is the worst way to mount an AIO for temps. (unless u turn all fans and stuff) There is also the question about fans, like i have said before. The biggest of Noctua coolers comes with better fans then almost all AIOs maybe except Arctics freezers. AKA putting P12's (for 9$each) or P12ARGB's(for 14each) would increase the gap between an good mounted and non-"pump in Rad"-AIO and any Aircooler out there

going with a Good noctua cooler for this CPU is fine, unless ur OCing.

Do u get good temps when all panels are taken off? cuz if not u have a bad mount or bad pump

[Majorpayne]

these are the temps with the front and top off. 

 

I was afraid it might be a bad mount or bad pump.. or even thermal paste.

Ok then we are left with:
Bad mount
no thermal paste?
the plastic stuff on the coldplate still on

bad pump. (i hope you plugged the pump into 12v from the PSU or AIOheader or CPU header on the MB)

Ok then we are left with:
Bad mount  = Maybe
no thermal paste?   = No but could be bad or nor enough
the plastic stuff on the coldplate still on = Nope plastic is not on coldplate

bad pump. (i hope you plugged the pump into 12v from the PSU or AIOheader or CPU header on the MB)   Maybe ummm it's on MSI's MB Pump_Fan1

bad mount then, header is correct, bad paste has to be toothpaste to get u to 90c+

I got rid of the AIO and replaced it with a DH15, 29 degree idle... 52 under full load

[freeagent]

That’s why I rag on AIO’s so hard.
