Hello, Today I completed my first build. I am relativly new in computer building and am not very experienced. So please make your answers as clear and simple as possible.
So ive built my new pc. The specs are:
Asus P8P67 Evo
Intel i5 2500K
Asus GTX580 Ti
Corsair Vengence 8gb
Corsair HX850W
So I completed the build and mostly every part of the build went fairly smooth. So I plugged everything in and booted for the first time. No problems what-so-ever.
Everything lit up, no warning signs on the components and the BIO's opened.
Everything was reconised and there were no problems. Then I looked at the CPU temperature and it was reading 87 Degrees!!
I knew this wasnt normal and after putting my fingers near the cpu I could feel the vast amount of heat coming off of it.
Within 5 minutes of booting I turned the system off because I knew that this was not normal.
I have installed the Intel Stock cooler that came with the CPU, I a little trouble installing it (as it was my first time) but I never had to lift it up again to produce air bubbles. I also noticed in the BIO's for the fist boot that the CPU fan was not running at full speed and not even at 1/4th of the max speed. I though this was strange and that it usually just speeds up as it detects the cpu temperature increasing.
I checked that the stock cooler was on correctly and that the 4 pin were pocking through on the back of the motherboard, and they were, but 2 however were not fully through like the other 2. So I fixed this without lifting the whole thing off again.
After doing this I pushed the power button on the computer. It turned on as normal for about 5 seconds then cut off and then came back on again a proceeded to BIO's. Is this normal? Once back in BIO's the temperatures had dropped to about 63 - 68 Degrees on Idle. I thought this still isnt normal temperatures. So I monitored the temperatures for the CPU and they stayed mostly around the 64 degree mark for about 15 minutes. After this I was still worried about the temperatures so it has been off since.
A Rasa 750 WC kit is coming in around 6 days.
Do you guys think these extremly high temperatures are just from bad stock cooling installation? Is my CPU safe and in good condition after being at such a high temperature? What about the boot problem and why is it turning on for 5 seconds then of then back on again?
Thank You for the help.
