Cooling trouble

[Jw7777]

I have an AMD fx 8320 being cooled by a corsair h100i. For close to a year I had it OC at 4.2 ghz and temps were never over about 43 degrees Celsius. Recently the temps just went crazy. I'm reaching 53 degrees playing csgo at STOCK speeds. I can't figure out why

53 degrees sounds about right to me... you're still below the limit.

Ambient temp has changed maybe?

Max temp on mine is 55 degrees. That's a little to close for me. Especially since it ran 10 degrees cooler for an entire year with an OC.

No, it's very cool in my room where I game. 69-70 degrees Fahrenheit

Could be dust on your radiator?

I cleaned them off already. But it wasn't slow for the temps rising. One day they are cool and stable with an OC and the next day I'm having to drop to stock speeds and max out my fan curve. Dust would slowly show performance decline

True, I only was asking just to be sure.

Well, no ambient change, no dust, maximum airflow. How about the pump? Is that still running well?

Thermal paste is less than a year old I guess so that would probably not be the issue here.

Corsair Link says the pump is running at just under 3000rpm so I do believe it is running properly

That is not normal. I can't figure it out
