h100i + 4930k idle temp

[Nioni]

Are these temperatures on idle ok?

What do you think about my custom h100i fan curve? these are the stock fans

Room Temperature: 26 celcius

What's it like under load? (I have the same CPU and cooler...) Have you OCed it? Without knowing this, the temps look OK...

41C is a bit high unless its a hot day.

Then its a bit hot - unless you're gaming on it.

When its under load it seems to not go above 50 Celsius.
I will OC it in the near future.

Depends on the load as to where that's OK. Try Prime 95 on it. Or the Intel test. (Google them)

Be careful with the temps when you overclock - those do seem a little high for no OC...

But don't worry too much, it is a chip that generally OCs very well (mine is 100% stable at 4.6Ghz, vCore 1.3)

4930k @ stock speed (3.4ghz)
I tried prime95, i didn't keep it 1 hour, only about 15min.
I thought it was way hot for its stock speed. I believe there is something wrong with my cooling solution.

Check the cpu block has been mounted right with the right amount of thermal paste.

Check your fan speeds (about 1000rpm) and pump speed (about 200 rpm) Edit: pump - 2000 rpm

Did you clean the cpu correctly before applying thermal paste?

 

[Superkoopatrooper]

I have a h100i cooling 3570k at 4.8ghz with 1.28v and it doesn't pass 60c gaming 72c prime95 blend. It is in push/pull with low fan speed. I dont know if it makes a big difference.

I've come to the conclusion that i need to re-apply thermal paste.

Cooler, Fans, Cpu, work properly, I cant think of any other possible cause.

If you are looking for a really good paste, I use IC diamond and its the bees knees. Last month I lazily wiped thermal paste of my gpu and reapplied new tim and the temps rose 10c so it makes a huge difference.
