CPU overheating on initial startup.

[Shayna]

Hi, I recently bought a new prebuilt pc and realized that on the initial boot up for the new day, that my CPU temperatures skyrocket, but when I restart my pc after the temps get so high the temperatuters of my CPU run normal and perfectly fine, The specs of my PC are:

Case	iBUYPOWER Slate MONO MR Tempered Glass ARGB
Processor	AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Processor (6X 3.7GHz/32MB L3 Cache)
Processor Cooling	iBUYPOWER 120mm RGB Liquid Cooling System
Memory	16GB [8GB x 2] DDR4-3200MHz RGB
Video Card	GeForce RTX 3060 - 12GB GDDR6 (VR-Ready)
Storage	500GB M.2 NVMe SSD + 1TB HDD
Motherboard	B550 AC
Power Supply	600 Watt - 80 PLUS Gold Certified
I would really appriciate it if someone could help me with this, thank you.

You wanna share some temp numbers so we can determine if overheating is a concern or not??

@ShrimpBrimeYeh sure, so when I start it up for the first time in the day with no apps open , it starts of at 60C and keeps rizing until it safety shutdowns to prevent damage to the CPU ( I also disabled all start up apps to see if that helped but it didn't). After I restart it, the temperatures stay at a steady 30C with no apps open

Make sure to use the quote button or @ShrimpBrimeso we can see your responses

 

I would guess that there's a defect in the pump that causes it to not start initially, then turning the PC off and on again starts it up. You may want to check the connection to the motherboard to make sure the CPU cooler is plugged in correctly.

@Fasauceome I checked the cable for my cooler thye all look plugged in properly, I dont really mind having to restart my PC, I'm just more worried that it may cause long term damage to my cpu or any other components do you think it would be fine if i just leave it or should i reach out to IBP and ask for a refund/replacement.(i bought it on Jan 23 2022 btw)

Where is the AIO plugged in? The water pump header or cpu fan header? I believe you can use either.

 

Cpu fan header should always have power when you push the power button, the same should hold true for the water pump header. 

 

Maybe try and clear the cmos one good time to be sure bios doesn't have a weird fluke going on.
