Computer wont stop overheating

[SoarinSoars]

So, I just got a new 1800x, and, I have a NZXT Kraken x61, Its an AIO cooling kit, and, Theoretically should cool my cpu down, no problem.

Right now, I cant boot into bios for more than 10s, because it's too hot. My computer hasnt been running for hours, it was installed from a tech guy who was hired by amazon, so, I dont know what's going wrong.

ASrock Pro4 Ab350 MB
GTX 970SSC
WINDOWS 10
16GB G.Skill 3600mhz ram (only clocked to 3200)

In one run of trying to start, i actually got three beeps indicating my ram was failing. Not sure why.

What is your CPU temps.

 

[SoarinSoars]

90.7°c in bios
83° average at 10% load
63° minimum at 0% load

 

[lumineZ]

Does you AIO make a "gurgle" sound?

 

[SoarinSoars]

No, one of my fans click from loose bearings. That's the only sound my computer makes. That and some computing sounds. Like, Squeaking. I cant explain it.

 

[mathewgarland]

Sounds like the cooler was not put on correctly. Get some new paste and reseat the cooler. That should help temp.

 

[SoarinSoars]

Okay. He only put a very thin layer of paste.

 

[lumineZ]

Have the computer been working before? or is this the first time booting it up?

 

[lumineZ]

Okay. He only put a very thin layer of paste.

The X61 comes with thermal paste pre-applyed and it should be thin.
People tend to overdo it when it comes to thermal paste.

 

[SoarinSoars]

First time with just a new cpu in it

 

[SoarinSoars]

But yeah, the tech was very, very sparing with thermal paste

 

[lumineZ]

Then re-seat the cooler onto the CPU since that was seated incorrect.

The thermal paste should be applyed in a very thin layer.

 

[SoarinSoars]

I'll reseat it when I wake up

 

[lumineZ]

Just remember to put on new thermal paste. In a very thin layer.

 

[SoarinSoars]

I'm not good at putting it on, but, yeah. I will remember.
