I recently installed the FX 8370 from the FX 6300 and after doing so my temps have increased a ton, I actually think that my temps are getting read wrong because when hitting that temp wouldn't the pc turn off? I also have an h100i so I felt as if I would be fine. I have reapplied thermal paste a couple times and they have been close to each other everytime this has been the best since changing from the other thermal paste I was using. And my water cooling tubes actually feel really hot so it could actually be an issue with that anyhow does anyone know what I could do?



I actually did have a problem once to the point where I could touch the side of my case and it would feel extremely hot and it feels really normal so I do think that its getting read wrong.

70'C is a bit hot, but if your pump wasn't working at all, then your temps would be 100'C+. Again, how fast are your fans spinning? And do you have good airflow through the case? Also, what are your ambient temps in the room or area you have the PC in?
How fast are your fans spinning? If you can turn them up or make a custom fan curve it should fix the problem. Your pump in the AIO is fine, otherwise your temps would be much higher. Are you getting proper airflow through the case as well?
 


But like I said in games it is saying its hitting the 70's so im not sure.
 


I have them running at full speed and of what I can tell it looks like its getting good airflow
