Not sure if this is the right place for posting this question. Sorry if its wrong.

 

Anyway i got a 6700k @ stock and HWMonitor and nzxt-cam is giving me random tempatures. As soon as i start a benchmark or stress it goes from 28* to like 50 or 60 degrees and all random. All just in seconds. Within 10 degrees of each other though.

With gaming like WoW its 32* just as the graphics card. Ive used Superposition Benchmark, Realbench and Intel Diagnostic Tool to stress(passed all). Superposition and realbench(build in monitor) gave me random tempatures. Intel only told 64 or 66 below max. So im not sure what the max is, i assume its 90 or 100.

 

I recently build a full ekwb loop in my system. The graphics card stays nice around 28* and with stress it slowly goes higher. But im really botherd with my CPU tempatures. Ive been told it shoudnt be more then 2-3 degrees difference between components. And i had this problem as well with my previous AIO. Although it didnt had so much difference in tempatures like from 30 to 50 in 1 second.

 

What ive done:

Bleed the whole system of air bubles.

Ive already changed voltage from auto to adaptive mode and set the vcore to 1.350. The CPU tempatures no longer spike all randomly, but are more in range of each other.

I have reaplied the thermal paste, im really sure its aplied right now.

Did some research, and apparently it happens a lot with the 6700k even Intel confirms it on the Intel forums. Even random spikes from 30 to 50 in a sec. However they are all discussed with air coolers.

 

So what can i do more? Are the sensors broken? Its a 6700k problem?

So what are actual numbers again? from 30 to 50-60ish? Gaming with WoW yields 32*? You're fine.

Well with Bencmarks it goes from 30 to 50/60 in a second and randomly goes from 50 to 60.. With realbench it even says max 65.

 

With WoW, the GPU is 31* consistent. CPU is 34*(sometimes a core randomly hits 40) But after a while i can see in HWMonitor it says max 47,49,41,48 package 51. Even alt tabing can change the tempature in a second. like from 34 to 30. And with nzxt-cam the tempatures of cpu/gpu are within 3* range.

 

So i know its fine and safe. But i was hoping i could fix this random tempatures. Its bothering me a lot. It shoudnt be ~30* difference in components and all in seconds and random.

 

It almost looks like the tempatures are linked with loads some how. And i dont think the CPU is hitting those tempatures, while the GPU stays cool and consistent.
