    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Could you dumb down the first question please? I'm kind of illiterate in these matters and don't know much about the pins and connectors. The PSU cables are from a 2015 Corsair 600W 80+ Bronze non modular. Alright, do you think it would be best for me to do that or just wait till...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Alright i took some pictures, View: https://imgur.com/a/Ep6AqQs (The cable above the cpu cooler is way above and seems to in no way interrupt it, i thought that could be it but there's like a 10cm difference in them ) this is from the CPU cooler fan and the BIOS settings since someone asked me...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Alright i'll take some pics after noon here since it's been asked alot, but from what i saw on the LTT video i really don't think the stock cooler is improperly installed, i'll also change it for an aircooler since i already bought it and it's arriving next week so that problem should sort...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Alright, so i did the thing you said and the windows is now active. So moving on from that, is it possible that my problem is the same as the man from that post? About the NVME being the cause? Because i really don't think that my problem is the cooling since everything was working perfectly...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Thanks i'll have a look, but do you think that the windows not being licensed could by the cause? I didn't find anything about that while reading about it. About the other points in that topic do you think that the NVME could be the cause of the overheating?

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Guys i was reading around the forum and i found this : https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/plug-in-nvme-cpu-jumps-to-100-utilization-when-i-launch-games-not-all-games.3715810/ One of the things i did when i changed my MOBO and the CPU was also to buy an WD NVME and not gonna lie the...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Also another quick question, i found one there's a place on my case that i can put 2 8cm cooler fans, they would be mostly on the GPU and i would need to buy a splitter apparently since it seems i can only put 3 fans directly on the MOBO, my questions are, does a splitter take away from the...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Yeah i was kinda fearful that it was faulty, i'm still not 100% sure it is not, but i bought some new cooler fans and an aircooler that will arrive sometime next week, and i hope that solves all of my problems. Just for posterity if it doesn't, you said installed everything correctly, the film...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Yup, as fresh as fresh could be, seeing as what kickstarted the whole process was my old SSD burning to hell so i had to buy a new one that never had nothing on it.

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Alright thank you very much, if i ever do get to buy a 3070 i imagine i'll have to change the case for one that could handle more fans/coolers; Now i imagine this will be my last question, at least for now, i read some comments on the aircooler that say he is in the way of the RAM memory slots...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Not yet but in the wonderland that is my country a 3070 is somehow cheaper than a 3060 and waaaay cheaper than a 3060ti, so who knows in the next year or so. Also quick tidbit about air coolers, the redragon one says : "Potency in Watts 130W", does it use that much power? That's like double...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    I'll buy the air cooler and a new fan and see if that helps, if i manage to open the top of my case/chassis, if not then i'd figure it would be better to buy a new one, but from what i said if i leave one of the spaces void of fans and with the air cooler and a single fan that would also be good...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    Those 2 top fans are kind of busted so i counted them out, as for top ventilation, i don't see any way for the air that goes up there to exit, i tried to remove the top of my case and it's stuck as all hell, it kind of have an outside cover that i imagine is mostly for aesthetics which i never...

    Question New i5-11400 overheating to 100°C in games with stock cooler.

    So i looked into one of these, and it seems quite massive, i took a picture of the interior of my case atm : View: https://imgur.com/a/WXF4IhI And it seems like the 8-pin cable would hinder the installation of it and any other air cooler for that matter, a friend of mine who understands alot...
