In the end I installed Windows (as not only you told me it's OK, but also a Youtuber and 2 guys from Reddit) and it seems to be only in the BIOS. I get 31 degrees in idle (when I really do nothing with HWInfo open). A quick stress test in Ryzen Master gave me 68 degrees. So far so good. And no...

Even if Asus praise stability, it remains weird for me to get 1.4v in something as basic as the BIOS. Even more when their Asus Optimal which does an automatic overclock gets better temp and voltage... Anyway, if it's normal I'll try to install Windows with stock settings and in a second time...

Hi and thanks for the reply. I'm using a NZXT Kraken X73. The pump is set downwards to avoid the RAM sticks and the radiator is at the top of the case. Thermal paste used is the Noctua NT H2, one "big" dot of paste at the center and 4 small at the corner, as Noctua recommends. So you think I'm...

Hi everyone. I'd like to have some information about the Ryzen 5950X behaviour in the BIOS. I've done a new build with an ASUS Crosshair VIII Dark Hero and it shows me a voltage of approximately 1.4 and a 49 to 52°C @3.4 GHz. With stock settings. Previously I had a Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master...

It's a Corsair AX 1000.

Hi all. So I've build a brand new machine recently who faced a couple of problems (here) but I though the hard part was way behind. Yesterday I was playing Star Citizen then Gang Beast for almost 2 or 3 hours straight, no problem. Today I was willing to play Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice but it...

Hi and sorry for the delay. So there is a confusion indeed. At your first reply you told me with such temperature at the start up there should be a problem with cooling which explain why I can't install Windows. I did not tighten a lot the water cooling as a colleague with a similar set up...

I'll try tomorrow to put some new thermal paste to see if it changes anything. Yesterday I tried the Ryzen Master software and applied a stress test of 60 seconds: it was always close to 90 degrees, all core up to 3.9/4.0 GHz. And all the noise that come with it. Also tried the benchmark in...

A Corsair AX1000.

Pump plugged into CPU FAN header as there is only one cable to control everything in this AIO (execpt RGB lightning). The case is a Phanteks Enthoo 719. It's surrounded by Noctua fans, 3 in front, one at the bottom, one at the back. The AIO fans (3) are on the inside of the radiator in an...

I have the Fractal Design Celsius + S36 Prisma. I plugged it in the CPU_FAN header and it's in PMW mode to let me control the fan speed through the motherboard.

Hi and thanks for the reply. So the radiator is mounted at the top of the case. But don't bother you any further: when I saw your reply, I remembered that I did not tighten entirely the screw on the CPU as a friend of mine told me that the Fractal Design system sucks and it scratched a part of...

Hi all. I'm here for a problem that goes beyond my understanding... I've recently build a new PC with some high end stuff (Ryzen 5950x, 3090 FE, G.Skill Neo Trident 64 GB @3600, Gigabyte AORUS X570 Master) as it's intended to be both my gaming station and workstation. But the thing is... I...
