H100 high temps

[dfbhd13]

Hello,

 

i have had an H100 for a year and a half now, i cant remember my temps at first but i believe they were around 75C during load. 2600k @4.5ghz.

 

as of recently after noticing high temps during rendering video work, i ran a stress test and my temps reached 90-95C on high profile fan speed.

its idling at 36-37 on high fan profile and 40-42 on low profile.

 

the pump is reporting 2086-2148 rpm. and the flow in the tubes feels fine, although the flow in the exhaust tube out of the pump feels a tad stronger.

and most of the heat seems to accumulate at the beginning of the radiator where the hoses enter, and doesn't spread much over the whole radiator.

 

i did a reseat twice while re-applying TIM. (MX-4) and nothing has improved.

 

would appreciate to hear any thoughts\tips on my case.

thanks

Sounds as if your cooler has failed or is failing. I would suggest getting it replaced. Please use the link on the left to request an RMA.

Ok thank you, i will submit a request.

 

is there a possibility that if i ship my unit back and they don't find a problem they will just return it to me and i will end up paying for shipping and handling ?

Yes, you would be responsible for the shipping costs, but they will just ship you a new unit regardless. They don't get tested to determine RMA eligibility.
