Temps are killing me !

[nomnom123qwe]

so basically i changed my thermal paste to noctua nt h1 and my temps were around 30 - 45 c on idle and around 60 -65  c on max load ! 

 

my cooler is 212 evo !

 

 

it was all running nice i was happy but happiness lasted only a day and a half now the temperature is reaching 70-80 c on max load and 45 -55 c on idle :l what the  happened ?

How do you test the load.

[techguru]

you probably applied the thermal paste wrong

[RollinLower]

take the cooler off and check for air pockets in your thermal paste. 

reapply it very carefully. if that doesn't stop it you might want to reajust your fan curves.

if that still doesn't stop it maybe you did the first load test wrong or something?

prime95/aida64

prime95/aida64

 

prime95 puts an unrealistic heat load on your cpu. aida64 pushes temps higher than you'd see in normal use too but not as much as prime

well when playing cs go it goes even higher >.>

Prime and aida are unrealistic load types, try running a game or something like unigen valley, as far as CPU temps increasing has it been long enough for the system to get very dirty? is the CPU fan working? if it's not dirty and the fan is working take the cooler off and re apply the tim.

take the evo off, clean off all the thermal paste from the cooler and cpu with rubbing alcohol and a coffee filter and try again. you might have put too much paste last time, or if you took off the cooler and put it back on it could have created air pockets. another possibility is that the cooler isn't seated properly or the fan curve in the bios is set to silence or something similar.

Thermal paste doesn't just go bad in one day. And definetly not high quality like H1. I've been using that for almost 2 years and no change on temps. I think that you have loose cooler instead.

well i checked it ... checked screws they are tight and i tried moving cooler it wont budge

obvious question....is the ambient temperature where you are at hot? Summer time and all that jazz....

It's because your GPU heats the air inside the case.

yeah around 33 to 35 c

yeah around 33 to 35 c

well you answered your own question. Your CPU temperature can never be lower than ambient unless you use exotic cooling solutions.
