Hello,

 

I'm building a 4k gaming rig and through out the years I've looked around here and there about components temperatures, but those are kinda all over the place.

So hopefully you guys can provide a more solid indication as to what to expect on the average, what's safe and what's not/max.

Please post the temperature in Celsius, I'm aware that the case is way too small but here's hoping the air flow will counter and/or be sufficient.

 

So now on to the rig itself:

 

NZXT H440 [mid-tower, silent, isolated]

NZXT Kraken x61 AIO (replacing fans with http://www.aerocool.us/accessory/shark_r14.html, for the led/test it out)

Titan X 2-Way SLI (EVGA SClocked)

Intel 5930k CPU

Super Flower 1200w platinum PSU

2x 7200rpm HGST 4TB HDD's

Intel 750 series PCIe SSD

G.Skill 32GB DDR4

X-Fi Titanium HD soundcard 

Asus Rampage V Extreme/U3.1 mobo

 

 

Fan setup:  

 

Front / intake: 3x 120mm CM xtraflo http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/case-fan/xtraflo-120-red/

Top, blowing out of the case: 2x 140mm Aerocool on the radiator http://www.aerocool.us/accessory/shark_r14.html

Rear: blowing out of the case: 1x 140mm "

 

Arctic MX-4 cooling paste and last but not least the mainboard, Rampage V Extreme/U3.1

 

 

Ok so now that the main components are known (if not all, the important ones at least), I'd like to know what the average temperatures one is to expect.

It would be particularly handy if H440 owners give input, but a general idea would be most welcome as well.

Basically I'll be gaming at 4k / comp will be under full load for most of the time, let's just say that.

So for the CPU, GPU and RAM what would be normal temperatures and what would be the maximum in a general sense without frying the parts?

I do plan on OCing the above three mentioned components so I'd like to know what's safe and what not temp not to cross.

 

As for OC-ing I'm hoping for 4.5GHz on the CPU and some decent gain on the GPU's.

For the RAM itself I'm aiming for 300-400MHz gain (from the 3000MHz default), all in all not super crazy OC's by today's standards.

So yeah...min and max temp in Celsius please.

Monitor problems, I'll butcher it when http://rog.asus.com/393642015/gaming-monitors/ces-2015-rog-swift-pg27aq-27-inch-4k-lcd-with-gsync/comes out.

Stupid displayport spec is gonna rape the 4k IPS 120/144hz dream so I'll have to settle for 4k/60hz (I hope this thing comes out soon).

 

Unless you mean downsampling? Anyway let's stay on topic please :P
