Madspec Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Hi all, Just replaced my NZXT Kraken X60 with the H100i, I had problems with the software so I exchanged it with the Corsair. I have 2 questions here, look at my spec's and tell me if you think this is normal. First , I7 4770K @ 4.5 @ 1.34V with MX-4 Thermal Compound, my idle temps are around 35~40 , 5 more then the Kraken. At almost stock speeds (3.9 @ 1.2v) , I won't get a BSOD but my temps are crazy hi, 90+ ..geez, and still between 35~40 @ idle I had no problems running Prime95 for 5-6 hours and my temps.. around 75 with the Kraken. Now with the H100i, I get 85+ and I get blue screens. This CPU can take 90 easy without going coco. My config is in pull by the way... The case is really well ventilated, 3 x Corsair AF140, 1 x NZXT 140mm and 1 x 200mm . I took off the pump and the Thermal compound is all good, 1 grain of rice worth, small layer. Second question, am I supposed to see my CPU temps in the Link software ?? I have the H100i Temp that says 27 but that is the motherboard temp, not the cpu. Any help would be good right about now :) Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamB Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Second first 4770K temp is not available under Link. Corsair say this is not their fault but a .net framework problem. However it is better to link your cooling to the H100i temp. My idle temp (3-7% usage) is steady at 29.3 The H100i Temp is not the motherboard temp but the cooling fluid temp which should be directly related to the CPU temp.
