System:
MSI MPG Z490
i7 10700k
GeForce RTX 2080Ti
XPG SPECTRIX S40G RGB NVMe M.2
Multiple SSDs
Gskill TridentZ ddr4 32gb
Fractal Celsius+ Prisma s360 AIO
EVGA supernova 750B2 PSU (should have lots of headroom for the new GPU and CPU - even with OC)
Fans:
(all fractal)
2 140mm front fans pulling in
1 140mm bottom fan pulling in
1 rear 140mm fan exhausting rear
3 120mm fans exhausting through top through fractal AIO rad
(working with old case, so balance isnt perfect yet. Swapping bottom 140mm for 120mm soon
rad is horizontal top mount
(Issues started when I swapped in the M.2 drive, the vertical GPU mount and the fractal aio for my corisair. Since, I've went back to standard GPU mount. but I think I've ruled it out as an issue anyway.)
one side of the tubing is warm, the other side hot.
Where I'm seeing those temps is in prime95 v.26.6 smallfft - doesnt hit that high at stock clock. but simply enabling extreme performance through MSI will cause it to run so high it gets to 1 or 0 from tjmax. pretty much throttles every core.
It didn't used to. and no changes. I'm gonna try and redo the paste today. see if it makes a differance.
As for the auto/PWM, I always had it on auto, and it was fine at first (fine-ish. i should say)
I've been having problems with stuttering and frame loss in games like warzone/metro/control etc. They hang up for a few seconds or worse, and my CPU response time goes to
<Mod Edit>. then it catches up.
Haven't been able to see whats happening by monitoring while gaming. but stress tests show those numbers in hwinfo
I feel like heat on the pump, and heat on the one tube make sense. And cooler temps on the return tube also make sense.... but why the throttling and high temps with a simple 'click turbo' boost.....
Pretty sure it didn't do it before.
All new stuff though. so I've been ruling things out one by one.... removed vertical gpu mount again, redid paste a few days ago, cause I didn't like the preapplied stuff (I thought)
Only other thing is the m.2 drive mounted under the cpu. she runs hot too, but I understand that's normal....
Tempted to throw my corisair aio back in and see if it fixes the problem....
