Idle and load tems for i7-5820K @ 4.0Ghz

[0wN3r]

Hi guys, Im using thermaltake Water 3.0 ultimate with 3 fans in push configuration on top of my H440 NZXT case. To measure temps I used RealTempGT. The results are as follow:

IDLE:

Load: 1% load

Cores' temps: ~ 25°C - 36° C on different cores

Fans speed: 40% /700RPM

LOAD:

Load: ~99% (looped cinebench r15)

Cores' temps: 56°C-60°C on different cores

Fans speed: 40-60% /under 1000RPM

LOAD:

Load: 100% (Prime95 v287)

Cores' temps: 76°C - 90°C on different cores

Fans speed: 100% /1700RPM

So what you guys think, should I be worried about too high temps? Also, the pump is plugged to fan hub supplied with case, running at constant voltage (probably 7V). When I have had it plugged to motherboard it showed about half of the RPMs predicted in product's specofication, which is 1800 RPMs. ...

The only concerning temps are your 90°C cores during Prime95. Also, for Intel-based chips, stress test with AIDA64 instead. 

 

That being said, Prime95 / AIDA64 are not traditional stress tests, and should not reflect standard stress thermals. Otherwise, your Cinebench / idle temps are fine.

your temps are fine, though 90c is quite high.

Prime95/Aida64 really aren't that cracking for actually testing your temperatures to be honest. As long as your not thermal throttling in general game use then your fine as your 50-60 under general load with cinebench is perfect.

 

Try a CPU intensive game for a while to see your actual temps but overall your fine.

Temps are meaningless without knowing where you have set your core voltage.

Could you elaborate please?

Running 90C at 1.35v for P95 is expected, hitting 90C at 1.05v is not. Voltages dictate where your temps should fall on the average Voltage:Temp curve, nothing else correlates as strongly with temperature.

 

Knowing what your voltages are set at is critical for evaluating aspects of your build, like cooling, stability, etc. If you were hitting 90C at 1.05v it would indicate something is inadequate in your cooling setup, or if you have left the voltage on "auto" it would indicate you are spiking your voltage under P95 load -which is a classic problem for Haswell (overvolting under synthetic benchmarks with any setting other than manual/static voltage).

VID (or Core Voltage) stays at 1.202v
