robinwar046

I need help guys . my cpu idle temperature getting so high like about 60-65c and when i'm trying to stress my cpu with cpuz its getting like 99c.
i already replaced the thermal paste and new psu.. and don't know what is behind this high temperature..


I'm using -
i7 6850k
Asus x99 mobo

2X Gtx1080

Corsair h80i Cooler

8gb 3200mhz ram

Corsair Rm1000X Psu

Something to do with the cooler.

Maybe the pump is dead? Is the pump even plugged in? 

If you touch the tubes do you feel water moving around?

I only see your reply if you @ me.

Yeah.. cooler is working, I already test this cooler on my i7 6700k build and it's working fine..

Cooler clearly isn't working 'fine' if you're getting 99C on full loads, pump might be dead.

Are you completely sure? Did you mount it using the correct mounting hardware?

LGA 2011(6850k) and LGA 1151(6700k) have different standoffs, so you may have used the wrong standoffs for the 6850k.

The backplate maybe also different, so consult the manual:

But I already tested h80i with my i7 6700k on loads.. and it's getting around 55°c in loads.

Did you use the same screws on both cpus?

You need to use different standoffs on them, because they use different mounting hardware.

If you used the same screws, then the bad temps are justified.

6850k=LGA 2011

6700k=LGA 1156

Yep.. I used correct mounts on my x99mobo

Yep I have both. I tested i7 6700k on my msi z170 m5 mobo

Ok.

So the cooler is fully working, you used the correct mounting hardware, the cpu is not overclocked, The voltage is normal, you used thermal paste, mounted with enough pressure?

Then the cooler is just bad. It is only a 120mm radiator after all. Maybe get a 240/280mm cooler instead.

Is their any issue from Motherboard or cpu?

Send me a full hwinfo screenshot, including the voltages and cpu wattage.

The motherboard may be giving too much power to the cpu, but more likely the 120mm cooler is just not enough to cool a LGA2011 high power cpu.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

Thanks for the effort, but the cpu voltage tab was still closed... :(

Can you send a screenshot of that too?

Are all the fans really at 100%?

Because the voltage is really good, so motherboard and cpu are not the problem.

So still the cooler is the culprit somehow.

1)The pump is fully working?(you feel the water flowing)

2)If you touch the radiator or the tubes, are they hot?

3)The fan is spinning full speed?

4)You have thermal paste on the cpu and used the correct mounting hardware?

5) You have push/pull on the cooler? (fans on both side of the radiator, like a sandwich)

If the answer to all 5 points is a definite yes, then the cooler is just too weak... :(

It is a much higher power cpu compared to a i7 6700k after all. 120mm radiators are not recommended for anything other than itx build, because they perform worse than an aircooler.

If you can, get a 240 or a 280mm cooler then, or a decent aircooler from noctua, or a dark rock pro 4.

I only see your reply if you @ me.

1) yes I can feel the waterflow

2)tubes are not hot

3)yes it is on his full speed

4)yes. I used cooler master thermal compound

5) Yes I did..

So are you sure the Motherboard and the CPU is OK?..  then it's time to get a 280mm cooler.

Replace your cooler.....

H80 isn't able to take the heat...
