6700k hitting 90 Degrees

[Ramontes]

The cpu is hitting 80-90 degree ttemmperatures during gaming stress testing causes 90 degrees. Cooler is the H100i and fan speeds are around 1800rpm i have reapllied the paste 3 different times the pump iis working as are any changes i make to the fans. During stress ttests it pulls att most 1.22 volts whatt could be causing thee ttemperature (excuse tthe double typing keyboard is messed up)

have been using cpu id and corsair link tto monittor tttemps

40 degrees idle

There is something wrong with the cooler. A 6700k shouldn't get up to 90 on 1.22v with even a Hyper 212.

[Sir Asvald]

Clearly something is not right, how much thermal paste did you apply? Have you connected the pump power and the necessary cables?

likee ii said tthe pump is working radiattor is clean however it could be iintternal  is there any way to service tthese rads?

grain of rice size and every time ive removed it spread is fine and yes everytthing is plugged iin botth fan cables into the connectter ttot the pump and tthe satta poweer as well

How do you know for a fact the pump is working? Its hard to tell witg a sealed loop. I would do a clear cmos then rma the cooler if that doesnt fix it

well ttthe pump speed on corsair link is saying that it is owkring att leastttt you can also hear the pump ittself and the liquid in ttthe loop is gettting hot i putt my hands around the hoses and i can feel the waterr move through

Do you screw in the cpu block properly?

yees i first diid tthem by hand then finished wiith a screw driver

I have the h100I v2 and the link program says the pump on mines avgs around 1980-2010rpm. Whats yours usually when it hits 90 or so? (not asking about the fan speed)

[Snadzies]

I remember a little while ago a mod mentioning that due to the thinner chip and motherboard design with Skylake that such coolers may not get as solid contact as they require and putting some rubber o-rings on the backplate/motherboard to fill in the gap can help give the cooler better contact with the CPU.

2300+ for the pump speed

i sold this cooler to a friend and if i cant find a solution well id just buy him a new one the damn cooler didnt even last a month and when i was running that same cooler on my 6700k temps were fine stilll

you might have gotten a bad i7 sample, since every processor is not the same. In Ncix video with the core i7 6700k and i5 6600k, the i7 was ramping up to 90 degress over, similarly like yours is doing.

Two things:

 

1. Read the Corsair section of my signature.

 

2. Mount the block with the cooler completely out of the case. The tubes are very stiff and you need to mount it with them relaxed to get a perfectly flush mount. You shouldn't need to tighten the cooler more than finger tight but you have to very slowly tighten the cooler evenly in a diagonal pattern.

 

 

what are the water temps? If the water is cool but your CPU is hot then you have a bad mount. If your water is hot then you either have a bad pump or plugged tubes. Water temps should be 25-35C at idle and 40-45C after extended load (max 50C). For example if your CPU is 80 and the water is 35-40 you have a bad mount. If your CPU is 80 and your water is 60+ you have a bad pump or plug.
