thats great to know, i was worried all that re applications of ic diamond ruined the top of the cpu and wasnt disipating heat or something. thanks! imma for sure get that aio and hope it stablizes :/keywork, hope. i invested soo much into this build just to have 1 issue after another lol jsut...

for sure thanks for the reply. im just stumped looking every where since it hits 98c soo fast its not much time to navigate the bios to check the vocore. im thinking it got damaged though since i was using icdiamod and had to reapply the ek heatsink 6 times, i think it might have damaged the top...

so i had issues with my ekwb blocks, removed them and issues i had were gone.im planning on getting a aio this weekend but when i turn my system on, it immediately hits 98c in under 4 seconds.i FULLY understand it would run wamr without any coolers on it but thats very hot, i even shut it down...

I never ran the 6700 without any coolers lol that terrified me XD didn't think it got that high, also when I jumped into bios, I did notice voltage spikes when it was heating up, started at the normal 1.2, then 1.27(56c), then 2.5v(70c), and 3.2v at 98c. Luckily this Friday I get paid so I'll...

Removed the coolers, tested without cards, runs perfect, with each card it was fine. No error lights or codes, CPU did hit 98c in the few mins it was on (through bios and also cam) does that sound normal for a CPU and no cooler? Haven't had a chance to check the SLI, that temp terrified me lol

I'm not sure if it's the board, seeing that I just replaced another one for not posting as well, the psu should be fine seeing I got both it and the Maximus on Saturday. Unless it already fried, haven't tried any ocs yet. tonight I'll replace the stock gpu coolers to remove the top rad I have...

*noob sorry typing on my phone, we all know how great autocorrect is

When I get home, where would I find the lights? Sorry noon question, my last 2 boards were on the cheaper end and the manual is at home lol would it be near the top right corner with the temp gauge?

I didn't see any red lights at all, I will need to check sadly when I get home, just got to work :/

so i recently upgraded my motherboard to a asus maximus 9 hero, and my psu to a 1200w corsair 1200i, thinking those were the issues with my pc. old build: ekwb a240gx2(for the 2nds gpu and rad), 3tb HDD, 480gb transcend ssd, adata 256 m.2, gigabyte a170xp-sli mobo, 1080ti FE in SLI (with HB...

cant be the monitor, i benchmarked a few games yesterday and noticed a spike in the FPS, some games i was getting over 200fps in 4k but now it looks like 6 fps? lol

today i upgraded and added my first EK water loop, everything is great. but before i was in SLI with the 2 gpus and they ran fine, now im getting stuttering while trying to play any games, i searched for a answer for 3 hours found nothing. specs as follows: corsair 570x I7-6700k PNY 1080 ti FE...

forgot to mention, im using a thermal take 360mm AIO and works wonders. even on a hot day the idle never passes 23c i just ran aida 64 to double check my clock speeds on the CPU, its hitting standard numbers non overclocked (3996/per-4202). i tried what some dude mentionioned on google and...
