Well seems like I've won the silicon lottery here. 4.4ghz @ 1.09v passed intel test, running aida64 stress right now and still strong! max temp @50c (sounds like I should overclock this...) Thank you so much guys my main problem is solved! Although I did not get voltage drop to work, I got low...

CPU: 4790k @ stock clock Mobo: Asus Maximus VII Gene My 4790k is a good chip I believe, I can do manual 1.1 volt, but it doesn't drop to 0.7v like stock setting at idle, it just stays there. On the other hand stock is @1.28 during load that's way too much than what it needs. I tried adaptive...

CompuTronix, Thank you for pointing that out, because the temp seems unrealistic with watercooling. DubbleClick, Thank you so much for pointing me to the right direction! Guys, I figure this out, I think. After I fiddle with all the voltage settings, it seems like turning off VRM Spread...

I'm really not sure about the pump sound, this is the first watercooling system I have owned and I'm not sure how it should sound like.

Update: Set all BIOS setting to default, even memory profile, along with corsair link setting. Prime95 shut off in 20 seconds.. But I tried AIDA64 stress test, been 30mins and still up, CPU temp around 60C

My build: CPU: i7 4790k @ 4.0 turbo 4.4 CPU Cooler: H100i Mobo: Asus Maximus VII Gene Memory: 2x G.Skill Trident X 2400mhz 8GB GPU: 2x Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 850 G2 This is bugging me. I initially have all default setting in BIOS except XMP for memory. But then CPU...

Build this PC recently, and trying to get the air flow in this case possible. Originally my idea was to pull cool air in from the front of the case with H100i, then exaust from the top. And since the gigabyte gtx 970's exaust heat vertically so it make sense to blow cool air from the right side...
