x299 2017 Workstation

[bkmvincent]

Just finished putting together my much needed upgraded workstation (Previous workstation was from 2013).

 

I own a video production company and do the majority of my own editing and motion graphics in Premiere/After Effects.

 

Here's the parts list. I already owned the PSU (and some 850 SSDs) from a previous build. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sDCMNN

 

The i9 is currently running stable at 4.3Ghz with the RAM at 3300

 

EDIT: Also forgot to mention that I'll be doing custom Cablemod cables, but I needed the system up and running ASAP because of work. Once I get the time to open it up and plan it out, I'll post an update!

UGH I KNOW!! I couldn't get it situated the correct way because of the size of the case. The cables are just too stiff to push in if I flipped it around. Not sure what to do about that

cooler mounted correctly? pump running at correct speeds? fans running? mounted the block correctly? removed the plastic off the block?

if your cooler is 100% fine i would return the cpu for a new one. you most likely got a bad chip with the shit thermal paste between the die and IHS.

 

please start your own topic if you haven't already if you need help with your issue instead of going off topic here

Dang, That is probably what happened.... Cooler works fine on all my other builds. And I can not deal with my 10 core CPU being on stock at 100 C.
