methosmtp Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hi, I'm running an i7 3930K with the following setup H80i Geforce 770GTX Antec modular 750W Silencio 550 case CPU is at 55° when idle, and 75° load, in 20° room. With the case opened, otherwise it's 8° more... Pump is 45° in Corsair Link. I've checked : - if the fans on the radiator are working and extracting air towards the rear of the case : ok - if the pump is fixed properly on the MB (socket 2011 for 3930K) : ok I'm considering a thermal paste problem...but it looked ok when i unboxed. Factory default was good, no scratches or anything. Do you have any idea of what else could be wrong? I've read many threads of people being worried about 45° idle...so mine being 65° when my case is closed... there is definitely a problem :D: Thanks!

Insomniack Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Try gently pushing the pump against the CPU and see if the temps change. The only other thing is the thermal paste. If you do take it apart to change it, see if the old paste is even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
