CPU Hitting 70c On Idle.

[FMJ_Twitch]

HEY guys so I just got new fans for my case and had to take everything out to tidy up cables and install the fans..long story short I had to clean the old thermal paste off because I took my AIO off and I clean it with a micro fiber but no alcohol now every time I open a program such as chrome my fans go to 100% and my temps hit 70c+ my CPU is a 6700k non over clocked right now could the mistake of me not using alcohol really do this or is this something else..?

(YES I did reapply new paste after)

There is software available that can tell you the pump speed

The pump in your AIO may have failed - it happens

 

Consider doing an RMA if its still under warranty

I don't see anything to worry about in the pic you posted.

what case are you using? does the radiator have enough room to breathe on the exhaust side? or is it restricted or blocked?

Yes sorry the red numbers and I just finished applying brand new thermal paste after cleaning and All I did was that caused this issue was install new fans which are the same as the ones I was using before only these ones are RGB.

H100i V2

Razer S340

And all fans slots are being using to either pull air in or push it out.

Well if your CPU spikes to 70C but returns to 30ish C when idle everything seems fine to me.

As long as the temperature isn't that high while you are completely idle.
