gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 hi i just build my new pc, i7 2600k, with a h80 cooler, asus sabertooth mb with cooler master haf x chassi. the h80 is taking air outside the chassi, and full speed on the fans. but there is a problem, when i use realtemp and intel burn test to test my small overclock,(4.3) it dosent take many secunds to get temps over 72C..before i abort test. even with no overclock i get high temps over 70c before i abort the test.. i have tryd to remount the h80, same results, what is wrong? tnx for all the help I think i know what the problem is now... one 3 pin connector would not go down 100% i got a new h80 and both 3pin got down 100% , compared to the old h80 where 3pin number 1, got all the way down, but the 3pin number 2 was maybe 50% and it could not connect correct. with the new H80 , i got my temps down with 10C ! Sorry for the bad exlination but i hope you understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Check the pump's RPM in the BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curiousclive Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 The H80 should be blowing air into case. Pump rpm should be about 4200. Also make sure that capacitors are not preventing block from making full contact with CPU. If so turn block 90deg to see if it then clears capacitors.

gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 no capacitors problem, cpu fan speed are 2020 according to bios.. and the fans are blowing in air to the chassi.. i also now tryd another cooling pasta, mx2.. still over 70 even in standard speeds of i7 2600k..and thats before i abort the test..probobly would go way above 70.. 2 cores are at there minimum temp 65..

parsec Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Something is wrong somewhere, I can do much better than that with a H60 on an i7-2600k at 4.6GHz. Besides checking your installation, including fan and pump mounting, not much else to do. Are you using the Corsair fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 yes, i am using the corsair fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Now when i run prime 95 i get, after 10 min i get temps 61-67-66-61..i think this is high also, now i have a small oc, 4,5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curiousclive Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I would double check that both fans are blowing in same direction. Easy to get mistaken. check arrows on fans. Also what is your ambient temp inside case and room temperature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what is your ambient temp inside case and room temperature? they are blowing in same direction > > my case right now has one panel removed, so the airflow aint a problem , and my room temp is 20 c, so for me i feel that 68c and so on in load is way to high.

gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Where is your h80 power connected to? hmm i need to check but i think its the pwr fan and to the psu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mi2andrew Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Seems about right to me at 4.5 ghz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mi2andrew Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 hmm i need to check but i think its the pwr fan and to the psu For me, I left the 3 pin unplugged and only plugged in the 4 pin molex. If it says your cpu fan is running at 2000 rpm then it's not getting max power. Either disable smart fan or unplug your 3 pin connector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gremlingswe Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Seems about right to me at 4.5 ghz. i can get way over that temp, + i got the side door open but even if i run it in standard clock i get around the same temp like 60 on the cold core, and 68+ on the 2 hot cores. edit Prime95 for 20 min, 2 cores over 70c the other 2 are 65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 The 3-pin connector is only for the RPM readings. Where are the RPM readings from? If it is from software, use the BIOS and check it, Turn off any fan control on your motherboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gremlingswe Posted October 21, 2011 Author Share Posted October 21, 2011 UPDATE I think i know what the problem is now... The one 3 pin connector would not go down 100% i got a new h80 and both 3pin got down 100% , compared to the old h80 where 3pin number 1, got all the way down, but the 3pin number 2 was maybe 50% and it could not connect correct. with the new H80 , i got my temps down with 10C !
