Strange temperatures

[MartyjWebb]

Disclaimer: I'm a semi noob with computer building 

Hi, I have a custom built PC which was built for my by PC specialists here in the UK. I was having a lot of BSOD problems and on on their advice I reset the CMOS battery and reseated the ram. Seemed straight forward.
However since then I've been getting some concerning temperature readings. It will take 2 weeks round tripping to have the system returned and fixed, but I have work to do so I'm someone can help me find a solution myself.

Basically when I render video out of DaVinci Resolve the fans are blasting like they never have before and the liquid cooling unit is displaying a red warning light. It's set to do so when the pump temp is above 45c. 
Here is a screenshot of my temps

I never checked them before the CMOS reset so I don't know how this compares.
Do these temps look normal? CPU Maxed at 80c & GPU at 86c
After a heavy load the CPU and GPU temps drop to around 40c but the pump itself takes forever to get back to idl temp. I'm talking like an hour

In every other way the system seems to be functioning normal. I'm just very concerned by the intense fans and red warning light that I din't experience before.

Could there be a problem with he pump?

Thanks

Looks normal to me. Keeping a threadripper 1950X with a H80i v2 is quite ambitious. The CPU is very hot for threadripper and so you may want to consider getting a beefier cooler.

That grade of hardware and the issues you're having, it may be best to leave up to the experts, rather than you damaging your hardware.

 

But @For Science! is right, if you did want to swap parts yourself, a beefier cooler is a must with the 1950x.

 

Good luck!

Unfortunately I thought I had left it up to he pros. I only dived inside to reset the CMOs on their advice. Now I'm very much regretting that.

I know that resetting the CMOS restores BIOS to factory defaults. Could it be a setting in there that has reset that might be causing this problem? 

PC specialist tech support is VERY slow to reply to any of my queries

And also you're saying that my temps aren't too bad? At what temperatures do you think I should begin to be concerned?

would love to see the workload youre putting on it
considering your 1950x is cooled by a small 120mm aio
and i think that your 1080 ti is a FE or a blower version
these temps are pretty normal

consider upgrading your cooling if you have money/time

Temps are quite bad. TR1950X is suppose to be max of 68 degrees. However having said that, Threadripper have two readings: Tdie and Tctl so it depends on which one Corsair Link is reading. Tctl is basically Tdie+20 degrees, meaning it may be 60 degrees in reality - hard to know unless you look into temps with programs like HWinfo64.

 

It's possible that the CPU was undervolted/underclocked to reduce the temps, but I doubt it. However if it was, then resetting CMOS would indeed kick out more heat.

Not really, unless they undervolted the CPU to make it generate less heat. Given the BSOD problems you were having, that could have been the case, or more likely a bad overclock.

For the most part, resetting the BIOS should not have had any negative consequence. If anything, you are on the safe side.

The H80 is obviously struggling. Cooling Threadripper isn't as hard as it may seem due to its huge die and IHS size, see for example Noctua's air coolers for it. However, to take advantage of that you need a large baseplate as well. Threadripper comes with adapters to fit "normal" AIO coolers (such as the H80) in it, but those were designed with smaller CPUs in mind and don't really cover as much surface as they could.

With the right waterblock, it's possible that a thick 120mm radiator like this one would cool a stock TR, at worst being loud at it, but the H80 may not be the best tool for the job, especially under all-cores loads.

Thanks for your help so far, you've all been much more helpful then their "tech support.

I asked if maybe the system had previously been underclocked and the told me to
"Set these voltages in BIOS 
CPU 1.325 
SOC (system on chip ) 1.0 (2133 & 2666) 
SOC 1.1 (3000) 
SOC 1.2 (3200+) 
DRAM needs to be set to XMP "
 

I'm not too sure how to make these changes. But I found this section in BIOS

 

But I'm confused because it looks like my CPU core voltage is already lower than what they're telling me to set. Wont that make the temps worse?

And I'm not sure what to do about the SOC values they gave me. They don't seem to relate at all the the values I'm seeing in BIOS here
Also no idea how to change DRAM to XMP

Any suggestions? So far you guys have provided much better support then they can.

Thanks!

Having the SOC voltage at around 1.1 can help with some stability issues and shouldn't really affect your temps much. What you may want to check, if you haven't already, is that all the fans in your system are in fact running, as in one of them didn't come loose from the motherboard header when you were reseating the RAM. It could explain a few things and happens often enough to be worth mentioning. And speaking of fans, how many in total and whereabouts do you have them in your case? I mention this as you may not be getting positive air pressure if there are too few, too many, or you don't have enough set for front intake for example.

Fans are all spinning.
