Hairball Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 hello, got myself a h60 today. Im wondering if its working correctly... I have a msi z77a-gd55 motherboard and i7-3770K Processor Room temperature is 23C On idle it is 46C and on load it is 65C, running prime95 it just goes straight up to 80c. I took of the old paste and applied AC5 or remounted it, still the same temps. I have read that people who have the H60 that it is running at 20-30C idle and 50-60 on load. I dont hear any pumping sound and the tubes does not vibrate, after running prime95 for 1 houre with small FFT setting the radiator is still not hot, the tubes are have also the same temp. (room-temp). My configuration is push and pull, have 120 fan above that pusher air down and the fan for the H60 is pulling air out of the case. Even with the case doors open i can not see ant difference in temp. The pump is connected to sysFan2 and set to 100% (12V) Are my temp correct?

Bryman Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 do you have it overclocked? if you do then yes it is possible but if not then no the temps are about 10-15C too high....and the water temp takes about 2-5 minutes for it to adjust...its not instant...you do have it pulling air from outside the case not inside the case right? sorry havnt slept in over 25 hours...so didnt read the whole problem you were having and feel really weird right now but 80C is normal if you have it overclocked and you run small FFT if not overclocked should be a max of 70C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairball Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 No its not overclocked. If i overclock the temp rise just 5-10C. The Fan on H60 is pulling air out, the 120mm fan on top of the case is pulling air inn. Is the pump suppose to be all silent and the radiator same temp as room... is 46C idel normal?

Bryman Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 as long as water temp is below 30-35C i would say thats ideal... try to keep processor under 80C too oh and small FFT is VERY intensive..try like blend it would be more realistic of what max load would be should be 5-10C cooler than small FFT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairball Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 So My idle temp is to high? And temp around 70c is normal on load? Seems like these temps are the same as an fancooled cpu. I throught watercooled system was colder. Or is the h60 not that good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 just run BLEND on prime 95 instead of SMALL FFT and see what temps you get...compare the two actually...usually SMALL FFT is ALOT hotter than BLEND...also yes should be 10-20C cooler on water than air closer to 10-15C max...like when i run blend 1.28 volts 4.5ghz instantly it jumps to 95C then eventually goes to 105C...but like when i did 1.42 volts it um shut off my computer because it went above 105C anyways...point is try blend as small fft isnt a good way to measure temps...and see what results you get :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairball Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Did some tweaks. After 2 hours with with blend, overclocked to 4,2ghz with 1,1V from 3,5ghz. Temp: In Bios: 72C Real temp: core 1/2/3/3/4 69/73/70/67 max temp: 71/75/72/69 Idle: after 1 houre without load Temp: In Bios: 38C Real temp: core 1/2/3/3/4 33/32/36/33 max temp: 40/46/49/43 Are these temp "normal" for this overclock with the cpu/h60 i have?

Bryman Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 safe temps yes i dont know if they are normal but looks good to me...as long as its below 75C i wouldnt even worry about it just dont let it get above 80-85C or it MIGHT start degrading but even then 80-85C is fine for it long term but cooler is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Did some tweaks. After 2 hours with with blend, overclocked to 4,2ghz with 1,1V from 3,5ghz.
