so, I had an Alienware aurora r12. i say had because i wanted to case swap due to the CPU reading 90+ C though everything worked fine no bottle neck etc ,
which I did the vram heatsink plus corsair h60 water cooler everything has been fine for the past year till now
so, I brought the Hyte y60 case swapped everything and to find the front panel connector for the Hyte y60 is not compatible with the motherboard Alienware provided.
so, i took the bottom from the Alienware and added to the Hyte y60 everything turned on no problem minus the display no picture though everything was on and stayed on for hours.
i then checked all the parts one by one tried every possible fix and nope conclusion the motherboard died after case swap -_- went to buy a new one and well would have to order one best buy or any local store no longer carry's 11th gen mobos -_-
end result said screw the Alienware I had a Ryzen 7 5700g laying around from my wife's old pc, so I brought a new motherboard the msi b550
I then brought a new cooler specifically the corsair 150i elite caplax 360 mm got new ram 64 gb kit corsair ddr 4 3200 two sticks dual channel an a new PSU corsair rm850x only thing i kept from the Alienware at this point was the rtx 3070 and the 2tb nvme which my os was on so didn't do a fresh install deleted the Alienware drivers and installed the new drivers needed flashed bios etc. so I build the new pc into the Hyte y 60 everything booted and works that being said
the temperature is once again stuck at 95C. [vulgarity redacted] I checked the temp via the bios hw monitor coretemp msi center icue speccy all the same stuck at 95C now pc don't shut off i can game and do everything normally so not sure if the temperature read is wrong, but it's been a frustrating couple days for sure. so, i came here for you good people to bless me with a solution.
as I am completely and utterly stumped brand-new system 95% of it and still the same temperature issue and I put new thermal paste corsair m30 on the cpu pea size
how is it possible same issue as the Alienware????? the headache is real.
also wondering the pre-built had a i7-11700f in it and going to the ryzen 7 5700G will performance be too different? haven't dealt with amd in a long time.
also, should mention the icue software reads the coolant temp at 30c.
also, all this is with a 12 %load. and fans and pump at max rpm
