H80i 4670 temps

Hi guys,

 

I just finished my new build, I have an H80i cooling at 4670 and I was just wondering what sort of temps I should be getting???

 

After a few hours of planetside (so everything was already pretty hot) I started up prime95 small FFT and after about an hour the hottest core got up to 80C, that seems hotter than I'd hoped a water cooler and not overclocked processor would get.

 

I'm worried I didn't tighten it down evenly, I might loosen the block and retighten it tomorrow.

 

The case is a 350D with two quiet edition AF120s on intake, and 2 more on exhaust, and one SP120 on the H80 rad in exhaust as well.

 

I was going to run Prime95 overnight but I'm too scared to with it that hot after an hour, and it's late so I'm going to shut down and go to bed, I'll keep working at it tomrrow.

 

Any help would be really appreciated.

One make sure that you have the fans actually adjusting to temp when it starts getting hotter also make sure the pump is always running at full speed. Two WHY BUY A WATER COOLER WITH A NON OVERCLOCKABLE PROCESSOR?!?!? Thats a waste of money considering the 4670k is only $20-30 more.

Um well prehaps he wanted low temps. I'm thinking about buying an H80i or some other AIO Water Cooler for the i3 file server I plan on building at some point.

 

Also my CPU 4670k non-overclocked at the moment running on an H60 V2 with 1 fan in push hit 60c when Gaming low 30s when Idle and I managed to hit 70c when Running OCCT Linpack.

Hey.

I was aiming for quiet. So trading a stock cooler for a H80I with a single quiet edition fan

Secondly I wanted a very long life and a very stable build which will be used for long frequent gaming sessions.

I was going to get a k anyway but I do know nothing about overclocking and I can't afford to have a processer degrade. Also a z87 mobo ups the price too.

I guess what I want to know is, the h80i is quieter. But with prime95 pushing it to the low 80s is it any cooler??

I was hoping it would be, and I'm worried it's not installed properly, the case was a tight fit. I'm only using one fan on our etc etc.

Oh ambient is 20C probably or lower. And all fans are connected straight to the psu or mobo. I haven't connected the h80 usb cable either so I assume the pump is going flat out. At least that is how I thought it worked? I hadn't gotten to undervolting etc yet.

Also, you can try Intel Extreme Tuning Utility. Developed by Intel. Also, Haswell tends to run pretty toasty. Also, 80 degrees C is technically safe, but not for the current clocks. You need to have clocks within a temperature zone. 80 degrees C is not acceptable for a 3.4GHz 4670 processor. If it was 4.4GHz or something, that's different.

Reseated and dropped 5C on prime, down to 75, is that acceptable?

 

Gaming hasn't gotten over 70C yet.

 

I did try Aida, get's about 75C also unless I set it to stress GPU as well, then it gets to 83C, so I think having the rad on an exhaust is really burning me there (pun intended)... might have to turn that fan around.

Update: I was checking through the bios and I noticed that the fan speed options were partly obscured. If I actually try to change them there is a forth option that does not show on the quick help thing to the right, that option being "Full speed"

 

The fan cooling my radiator was connected to a mobo header, and until now was on the "normal" speed. I switched it to "Full speed" and ran AIDA64 again (with GPU stressed as well) and temps are not 74C on the hottest core down from 83C. Which is much more what I expected. If I don't stress the GPU, or use prime 95 instead the temps are solid stating out around 69C so I'm much much happier.

 

The lesson, don't assume! I had assumed the default setting on the mobo fans was max. Apparently "normal" is some sort of balanced profile.

The K series would have had an easier time oc'ing.

It's better to oc a K series cpu than a non-K. 

By the time the cpu has any serious degradation, it would've lasted longer than you would've needed it.
