    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    Worked fine really, the 120mm aio was also completely fine and never really went over 75 tbh, wraith seems to be working right now, lowering the temps from that crazy 95s down to 80-85ish. Not really in the market for a new aio atm, but ill have a look at the thermaltake. Thanks

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    Temps seem to be improving, but I might play it safe here and order some new thermal paste, i am probably pushing it as i got the paste like 4 or 5 years ago. Before I used the rice method when I took the cooler off it was spread fine, anyways, ill give the 5 dots a go. Thanks for the advice

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    I use a rice grain size on the centre of my cpu, should be perfect, been doing it like that for years without an issue. I also never reuse my paste, every time i take some cooler off I always make sure to properly clean with isopropyl alcohol, and then reapply new thermal paste.

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    yeah suppose youre right there, anyways the case is a zalman z11 plus (yes still stuck in 2013), not sure how the airflow in this is really, probably not as good as something new. Ive got one intake at the front, cpu cooler and one exhaust at the back. Thermal paste is arctic mx4, however it is...

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    Put back the wraith cooler and temps seem to be kind of improving? theyre still quite high though, often reaching 90 and above when gaming

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    to be honest didnt think it would matter as my chassis and gpu dont have anything to do with my cpu cooling. anyways the fan was exhausting and i think it was.

    Question What is wrong with my CPU ?

    Yesterday I was playing a game and my computer randomly shut off, I turn it back on and I saw a CPU overheat warning. This kind of scared me and I started to question my aio if it has died (corsair h80i). I start monitoring my CPU temps and turns out, my idling is really weird, I often idle...

    Question Will I have a bottleneck?

    To add to both of them replies, im not having issues in running any of the games i mentioned, I just upgraded and am worried that a more powerful gpu could start bottlenecking my cpu, leading to sometimes worse performance.

    Question Will I have a bottleneck?

    Yeah, I already have them games and again im not looking to get massive gains or anything, im just worried my cpu or gpu might be getting bottlenecked since i upgraded from the 1080 to the 3060, in csgo I easily average 300-400fps while in normal competitive matches, in arma 3 i already average...

    Question Will I have a bottleneck?

    If that's the case, it depends on the game, but csgo: low settings, 1080p, 100fps is fine by me (I get alot more already so its quite high) arma 3: low settings, 1080p, 25-30fps is playable as koth is very intense vrchat: any settings, 1080p, 60fps is playable and feels nice for a vr game. It...

    Question Will I have a bottleneck?

    I am very aware, and I upgraded from the 1080 to the 3060, though not a big upgrade, this card i've had for a very very long time and I think it's time to just get something newer and fresher, while getting some extra frames on the side. As I mentioned I play on 1080p, 240hz, with variety of...

    Question Will I have a bottleneck?

    I play on 1920x1080, 240hz, usually play games like csgo, arma 3, beamng.drive, and im soon looking into buying a VR, to get into VR. Other things I play alot less are for example fifa, or siege, only with friends though. Apart from games I also mentioned VR, would it be an issue or some...

    [SOLVED] Airflow suggestions for H440?

    So, no intake whatsoever? I am planning on putting my panels back on so need to wonder, also what do you mean by blower/turbo model, it just has a fan, just need something to keep the PC cool and have good circulation, the other day I was rendering a video purely using CPU and PC shut off due to...
