CPU RUNNING TO HOT

[JimmyJimJam]

Hi ive had a corsair h75 for 6 months now and everything was fine idle i was about 35 degrees however idle now is nearly 45-50 degrees, is it my water cooling pump or is it the pc case itself..... i have a fx 8320 stock in a corsair 200r (2 intake from the front and 1 intake at the top...... fans on the h75 are both taking air out of the pc; their r sp120) i am going to get a new case in a few weeks (fractal design r5)

Idle doesn't really matter, what are load temps?

[Agent181]

It all really depends, what is your room temperature and usage programs as well as load temps

[JimmyJimJam]

under full load its about 60-65

Could the coolant be out or getting close to out? Did you change a setting on corsair LINK?

[JimmyJimJam]

is it doing my cpu any harm tho

i dont think the h75 has corsair link????

Are you sure your system is truly idling -- i.e. no background tasks using the CPU and CPU usage in the single-digits?

yep its around 3% cpu usage

i have a h100i gtx for a couple of days. But when installing did you plug a cord in to a front USB port on your motherboard?

And when did you last blow out the radiator?

[thekeemo]

no the h75 doesnt have corsair link

And have you tried changing the thermal compound on the block? Perhaps it's degraded. Get some new thermal compound, clean the block and top of the CPU, and apply new.

[JimmyJimJam]

would changing the thermal paste lower temps at all.... even a little bit

[Guest Johnny5g]

no the h75 doesnt have corsair link

ok is the fan running slow or louder than usual? Are the fans dusty?
