Thank you. So far so good.

Ok this can be a bit obscure and long but please help if you can. So I was running my 24" AOC monitor through VGA + a TV through HDMI from the same motherboard. Not sure if it's related or not, but the monitor started to take minutes to start, with the blue light blinking for ages until it would...

decided to sell the CPU after all, since the VRMs on the board can't handle it even without overclocking, no matter how cool I keep the CPU, there's a risk of ruining the mb..

it is certain cores more than others, but they all go high up. G400 has 125 TDP , no? 212 black edition has 150W. I don't know really, buying another cooler only to see it overheat again or burn the mobo, will be painful.

I get it, but I'm not overclocking it and it's still hitting 100 degrees on full load with a Deepcool 400. Would a fan upgrade change anything? I'm afraid to damage the motherboard, don't care if the cpu will die or not at the moment..

I think it's too big , Deepcool 400 barely fit my case. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threads/using-i7-8700-processor-with-h310m-motherboard.380579/ Also found this thread, if my mainboard is so underwhelming, will the cooler make it safer to use at all? Or will i risk burning it...

could it be that voltage tweaks from the bios may help with this motherboard? Also how to do that without damaging anything?

Ok so i took it to another service, they tried a Deepcool 400 on it, it's better under <60% load, but at around 80-100% load it goes up to 100 again. Seems like 150w at least is needed, will Cooler Master 212 Hyper Black Edition (I'm assuming that one is 150w instead of 125 for the non black)...

it doesn't show any signs of that, the seller has 100% rating on ebay and selling since 1998. That would be quite weird if he didn't run any tests before selling. But everything is possible. I'm just not sure if its actually overheating or if its the sensors lying. Cause there's no throttle, no...

its not the case, i've been to second service center today, they all install it properly and it works on my previous CPU as well, so its not that. They say could be a problem with the updated bios and can try to downgrade it. Another case could be sensor faulty on CPU. The question is this...

Could it be there the thermal sensors are faulty? Even at 100 degrees i don't get throttle or shut down?

Thanks, so you think that is the issue and not heat transfer? Cause the heat sink itself is super cold. If it was the cooler issue, wouldn't we get a heated up heat sink and hot air blowing out of the case ? the only thing that gets heated is the mainboard and the cpu itself.

it's not the stock heat sink, I left a link with the new cooler. I read that VRMs on my motherboard aren't good enough for 9700k. So I just don't know at this point, if it's incompatible and needs to be returned/sold, OR if its a heating issue that can be resolved. Please help

Hi, I'll try to upload soon, but the cooler is https://www.deepcool.com/products/Cooling/cpuaircoolers/AG200-Single-Tower-CPU-Cooler-1700-AM5/2022/16203.shtml this one. Can this issue alone cause it to jump like that? The thing is that the sink itself is cold, seems like transfer isn't happening?

Hi, thanks for quick reply. If I wanted to change the motherboard, I'd have gotten a newer CPU with it. So for now the situation is this. There's not really a before/after thing. I just added a CPU and that's all.
