Hello Tom's hardware community,
I'm having CPU overheating issues on my newly built PC, here are the specs:
Motherboard: ASUS Z270e strix (NEW)
Processor: i5 7600k (NEW)
Cooler: Corsair H55 (NEW)
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 Gaming
Power Supply: Corsair V550
Case: Gigabyte Luxo X10
Cooling Setup:
1 Intake fan (Front) Thermaltake riing
1 Intake fan (Side Panel) Thermaltake riing
1 Intake fan with radiator (Back)
2 exhaust fans (Top) Gigabyte case fans
Corsair H55 AIO cooler with push configuration.
My room ambient temperature is around 30-35c. My CPU is idling at 40c in BIOS and around 45c during normal computer work. I ran Heaven benchmark and Rise of the tomb raider, the CPU temperature rose up to 90-100c (100% CPU usage) @4.20Ghz (Intel Turbo Boost). The GPU temperature at that time was only 65c.
I disabled the Intel Turbo boost, but I am still getting 80c at 100% usage which still is pretty high. While installing the AIO pump, I used the pre applied thermal paste and didn't use my own. The pump seems to be working and all fans are working as well.
What could be the reason for this alarmingly high temperature?
