Please Help! water temperature HOT!!!

Ok I have a i9 7900x delidded (motherboard Asus Rampage VI Apex) cpu is being water cooled by a EK XE 360 radiator with 3 EK Vardar fans running at 2200rpm have it overclocked to 4.6GHz with a 1.22 voltage. When running Aida64 full load with "Stress CPU" & "Stress cache" options checked am hitting 76c after 45 minutes I mean this seems high but the worrying thing is checked my water temperature inside the reservoir  via a thermometer and it's 98.8c :o YES that's 98.8c checked at least 5 times to be sure and it's the same. Even my water block and fittings are hot I mean surely it can't get this hot?

add more radiators, that chip can draw more power then a small heater so im not THAT surprised tbh

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

a that temperature, wouldn't it be boiling?

Have you tried to perform a sudden temporary interrupt of the electricity flow to your computational device followed by a re-initialization procedure of the central processing unit and associated components?

Not unless he lives high up in the mountains :D

 

Edit: Just realized that large areas are over 400m+ sea level in the US (Netherlands here, so most of it is below :D )

And at 400 the boiling point should be 98.6...

Are you 100% sure that's 98.8C and not 98.8F?

 

98.8F is still relatively hot (the temp of a hot bath) and will feel hot to the touch.

 

98.8C would burn/scald you on contact and your water would be boiling.

Also, OP said his CPU temp is 76c, So the water being hotter then that is impossible. 

98,8F = 37c which seems normal for a watercooled system

I figured I'd give him the benefit of the doubt that he's not that incompetent, and assume that there was other stuff in the loop that was waaaaaaaaay hotter and he just wasn't mentioning it. VRMs or something. Idk.

I would agree that seems more likely the temps are in F not in C, if they was in C then it would be boiling and cpu would be hotter than 76c, make sure pump is pumping fast enough ?

Ok know I look like a REAL GOOF!!!  :ph34r: this is what happens when you don't read instructions. The thermometer has different settings  for different thermocouples it has types like K/J/T/E/N/R I had it set on the WRONG type 9_9  my thermocouple is type K. Anyways after running Aida64 for about 15 minutes water temperature was at 40c I hope this is ok? but the fact still remains like mentioned before fittings, water block are hot even the radiator is blowing hot air.

The radiator, fittings, reservoir and tubing will be hot to the touch, this is normal when the CPU is under load for longish periods of time.

Sounds normal in every way. Haven't delided  CPUs an a I can hit over 90c in just a few seconds and have several pumps and rads. 

 

Don't worry about it.
