Carl720 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Having recently updated the driver for my H100i I am getting high temp recordings for my CPU. Running idle the temp is around 55 deg c. Surely this should be lower. The other readings for GPU running idle is 25 deg c. Rome 2 has crashed sometimes not sure whether this is due to the graphics driver or high temp CPU cut off. I recall seeing a temp of 90 deg c shortly after exiting Rome 2. So before I fiddle around with the hardware what should be the temps for my rig whilst running idle and under stress for H100i. Do we still have issues regarding win 8.1 64 bit OS or has the latest corsair link driver resolved the long standing issue or is it a beta version. Can you recommend an alternative free software to determine the true temps Lastly can you recommend the ideal settings for the fan control, is balanced satisfactory.

clubfoot Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 cpu temp and real temp are good free alternatives. My 4.5GHz o/c idle temp is 34c and hits just under 80c under full load. If real temp does show 90c make sure the Corsair pump is securely fastened,...evenly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clubfoot Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 Just out of curiosity how do you have your fans, rad and case setup,...can you post a pic of your case showing air flow and what is your ambient temp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl720 Posted May 28, 2014 Author Share Posted May 28, 2014 Ambient temp is anything between 17 Deg and 21 Deg (Room temp). The cpu tower comes with two fans seated to the front and rear of the case, close to the base. From looks of things only one is shown running the corsair link. The corsair pump fans are seated on the underside of case top. The front case fan draws in air whilst the the rear and corsair fans push the air out. So should the rear fan be turned round to drawn air in? Have been away for a few days so apologises for not responding sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
