Hi all.
So I've asked this question before and I received an answer that everything is completely fine. I've let it run for a week and I'm still not convinced. While sometimes it's fine, and the idle temps climb to around 35'c at idle; it's constantly fluxuating between levels of 40-50 on windows 10, and on games it climbs from 50-70 in a second. The fans are also crazy erratic and rev up for no reason.
Should I really be getting 70'c with a h100i gtx, on a non OC'd 4790k chip? I just don't believe it. And these aren't taxing games mind you. I got 67'c on 5 minutes of Terraria just now. And this is all inside week rig, which is housed inside an Corsair Air 540 and a gtx 780.
I just can't think of what it could be. I've taken the copper mount off the cpu and replaced it again to make sure it's tight enough. I've applied my old Arctic silver 5 on it, and it doesn't seem to have an effect. Granted I don't know what the temps would be like if I didn't put nonstock compound on it, so It could have been worse.
I'm thinking about buying some newer compound and having another bash but I thought I'd ask you guys before I did it.I'm still not entirely sure anything is wrong. I smashed out 3 benchmarks on Firestrike extreme and it got to around 65-70'c, and in some games (tried it on dishonoured) it barely even noticed there is a games running and stays pretty cool.
Hopefully you guys can figure out something. Any ideas?
