Hi guys,

 

I'm not sure if it's the place where I should be posting this, I hope so =) !

 

I currently have my CPU overheating : it's not comming from the airflow cause everything else is perfect : at idle my CPU is already at 40 when the rest is around 25-30.

 

When i play normal game : OSU --> CPU = 70°C / Lol pretty much the same, and my fan goes crazy.

 

For information i'm using a watercooling bloc that I won and it was working perfectly fine until 2 or 3 weeks ago (I notice it because of the noise it makes).

Its not coming from the dust as I just removed everything.

 

My next plan is to remove the water bloc, put the old fan and see how it reacts.

I also want to look at the termal paste maybe ?

 

Do you have any other advice ?

 

THank you for your time,

 

PS : sorry for my english, not a native speaker and i'm writing this fast between work =D ! See you

What CPU is it

 

idle temperatures dont matter

 

if you have an intel CPU, 70C is perfectly fine

 

if you have an AMD CPU 70C is a bit too hot, but not dangerously hot
