killuchen Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I just finished building my pc last night and my idle temp for my 4930k is at 50c?! I feel like that is way too high for a push/pull h100i with fans at full speed. I'm using corsair link, real temp, core temp and BIOS temperature readings and they all say 48-52c at stock clocks. I tried unscrewing my cpu block and remounting it but nothing has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ukkooh Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Does your cpu underclock/undervolt properly when idling? What is your ambient temp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wytnyt Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 sorry i missed your 4930k and read your pc specs. yes temps should certainly be lower and these coolers dont have alot of areas to address but it has to be in the block seating,tim application or possibly something keeping the block from seating properly such as a capacitor . have you also checked your pump rpm in your bios? also what are your load temps and when its reading 50c,whats the load showing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killuchen Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 Well, I now currently have my cpu OCed to 4.4ghz. Under prime95 load it shoots up to 95c so something is up.... I have some arctic mx-4 on the way and I'm going to play around with the seating of the block. My pump rpm reads 2346 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
