AIO and CPU Temperature Discrepancy
Go to solution
Solved by Light-Yagami,
Radiator will only reach the water temp. Water temp usually reaches between 28-31°C, depending on the load. It can be higher with smaller AIOs but with a 360mm rad, there's no way. It's normal that the rad doesn't heat up at all.. 8700K pulls sth like 140-150W under load? That's nothing for a 360mm rad.
You're basically limited by heat density of the CPU and thermal transfer between IHS and cooling block.
What you're experiencing is completely normal.
