Hey guys, just got my new liquid cooler, and wanted to verify if the liquid cooler I just got works. I used to have a H55(120mm liquid cooler) and it actually was getting me better idle temps than the H100i is. The H55 got me around 20 idle, while H100i v2 is about mid-high 20's. (To be fair this one has a fan curve while the h55 didn't.) While gaming it does actually run cooler than the other one. Seems to hold Overwatch at about 50-60C. Is this good? (h55 ran about 60-70 while gaming)
Processor is 6700k non oc btw
 
Solution
It depends a little on the TIM you use and ambient room temperature. Give it a little time to cure and you should be OK.

Ideal temperatures are 10-15C above ambient room temperature at idle and 60-65C under load.
Your H100i is doing it's job. :)
