wytnyt Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 try using h100i water temp as your trigger,its better to use to control the water temps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovk Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 try using h100i water temp as your trigger,its better to use to control the water temps It doesn't work on ether and using the water temps isn't good on haswell because of the crappy thermal paste under the IHS, So the chip could be cooking when the water temps are low.

wytnyt Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 then you should get better paste as controlling water temps is the way any water cooler works,,you simply cant lower cpu temps unless the water temp is lowered.,,,theres no reason to spin up the fans if the water temp is low and if the cpu is hot with low water temp then its a die contact issue.

Ovk Posted November 17, 2013 Author Share Posted November 17, 2013 even when the cpu is max out around 90c the water temp is no higher than 46c, But yer im going to be redoing the paste on the die soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 its normal to see a big difference in cpu temp vs.water temp.of course your water temp could be a bit lower check and insure the pump is at ~2200 rpm,then the seating of the board or the backplate is upside down the two notches are on top looking at it. one other possibility is maybe the block is sitting on a capacitor ... http://images.hardwarecanucks.com/im...ckplate_sm.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovk Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 http://hmdmodding.com/images/blog/articulos/review-corsair-h100i/big_20.jpg There no way you can put it upside down also i used the wasters that come with my motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 here no way you can put it upside down also i used the wasters that come with my motherboard. Sure there is. If you look in your pic between the two arms are two notches that align with the top two rivets on the CPU socket. There is only one rivet on the bottom of the socket. So if you dont pay close attantion the backplate can be installed upside down. http://i42.tinypic.com/16h3xpk.png Also controlling the unit with water temps is a better way to go. It has nothing to do with the Haswell chips and everything on how the H100i software works. As long as the water temp is low that means the cooling block is getting cool coolant.The CPU cant cook under the heatsink if the water temp is low. even when the cpu is max out around 90c the water temp is no higher than 46c Completely normal. Eventually the water temp will reach a point where it cant get any cooler due to the amount of heat being added back to it. If the water was anywhere near as hot as your CPU it would certainly fry then. I see you are also using Windows 8.1 which at this time is not supported by the LinkSoftware. So this could also be part of your issues. http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=123030 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovk Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 I have mine up the right way also if the IHS isn't transferring the heat from the die then the water block temps will always be low which is the problem with haswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanutz94 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Ovk, I'm sorry but the two are not even connected in any way. This was explained in detail through out this thread. If your CPU runs hot because of the poor TIM on the dies, your water temps would be HIGHER not lower. There isn''t much we can do to help if you wont listen to everyone's suggestions.

Ovk Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 Well the thread was started for a different reason a problem which was corsair link, And i have been working with computers for over 15 years and if the IHS isn't getting proper contact with the die the die will have a higher temp than the IHS which is transferring the heat to the water block.

Ovk Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Delidded my cpu dropped my temps but 20c on load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
