  1. So come to find out that the EK water block used the wrong materials in the block, Asus even droppped a msg about the issue, next time I will do more research.
  2. Update , come to find out the issue was that my VRM EK water block on the MB started to corroded inside the block, so the CPU block micro fins got blocked and that’s why I was having issues with the CPU over heating. So if anyone is useing the ASUS ROG Z690 formula one MB, DO NOT USE THE VRM BLOCK.
  3. so, because in my loop I have pump/res combo and it goes to the CPU and MB then to a 480mm rad(thick boy) mounted on the back wall of the case then to the GPU then to a 420 rad mounted to the top then back to the pump/res. I changed the loop order after i repasted the block and tested it, still having the temp problem the block never moved. The GPU runs a few deg hotter than before but less impact the before.

  5. I fixed it, the loop order was wrong. I needed to go to CPU first
  6. I also think im not getting enough pressure on the CPU from the water lock. When i used an AIO never had any over heating issue. Same motherboard and CPU. But when i would install the AIO block I would never bottom out the stud to the back plate. With this XC7 waterblock I will bottom out the stud to the backplate
  7. So I thought about the FPS part and I did go from 240 to 170 and it made no change on my temps or how it was running. Maybe the thermal sheet moved during the install of the water block. I might pull the block again to check it.
  8. I repasted the CPU again with Thermal Grizzly - KryoSheet this time and no change. I'm about to throw away this damn computer
  9. I'm still having the issue with keeping my CPU from overheating and crashing games. This shouldnt be an issue at all with this build?
  10. i have noticed this issue lately when playing games like star citizen, The Finals or COD, The CPU "package temps" get into 90's C. NZXT cam saying its in around 70c at its peak that's with having an AC unit blow at the computer to help give cooler air. It started to crash and give me the blue screen. I repasted the CPU a few days ago and it kind of help, but the idle temps are still higher then when i first water-cooled this a few months ago. My GPU stays so cool and never gets above 55c at its peak during game play and 25C at low load or idle. anyone got ideas? photo of the loop order and iCue at idle. The loop order is pump/res to GPU, 480mm rad, CPU to motherboard, 420mm rad back to the pump. motherboard ROG Maximus Z690 Formula one I9-12900K MSI gaming trio X 4080 1300w PSU
  11. just so happen to ordered one not knowing the XG7 came with one. The one that came must have been messed up. thanks man
  12. Yeah I tried to run it to its own hub and no change., i have the pump lcd combo on one hub and the cpu block on another. then ran a 3rd hub for just the water block no change
