AIO High temps fast

[tonumeister]

I just bought ID-Coolin frostflow+ 120 snow, and idle temps goes around 21-40C and under load it goes almost instantly to ~70C. My old air cooler did better job than this, air cooler barely hit 60C. Can this aio be just faulty one? And I used idcooling thermal paste.

Amd FX-8350 4,6GHZ 1,43v

2 intake fans

120mm AIO's are very unpowered even compared to the budget air coolers.


If you want an AIO get at least a 240mm.

Aaah...problem was i cant place 240mm to my case and picked 120mm because of that, didnt know they are that bad. Maybe i drop just clock and try go with that.
