Hiya,
I have:
3990x
Gibabyte Auros Xtreme
Edit Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 with 2 140mm fans, 1500rpm and 1200rpm
Corsair Vengence 3600Mhz LPX 18-22-22-42 256GB RAM at 1.35V and SOC 1.1V
I had about 70-80C previously then I upgraded the AMD chipset drivers, previously I used from gigabytes homepage. Then I got MUCH higher temps and also higher clock speeds.
Under heavy load I now get 90-95C for CPU and 90C for VRM MOS. Even though it is so hot the CPU is mostly at 3.8GHz which I think is way to high for this CPU, it dips shortly to 3.3GHz and then jumps up again. Previously the CPU would be at 2.9GHZ all the time under 100% load.
Case temp is 30C and room temp is 27C. I got 7 140mm fans to blow into the case.
Now, what are safe temps to run with? And what should I do to get the temp down. Ideally I would like it to clock down the CPU more when it gets hot, it seems as if it is not trying any more.
I guess I could switch to watercooling, but are they not crazy loud? Some use 2500rpm fans.
Any ideas?
Best,
Andreas
