For the past few years I have been trying to run an i7 7700k in my system, I have always found that both idle and load temperatures are fairly uncomfortable (in my opinion.) I currently have a Gigabyte Designare Z270X board with a 4.4GHZ i7 7700k being cooled by a Corsair h100i v2 cooler at idle temperatures will be around 57°C on the package (each core is often around 50°+) whereas the liquid in the cooler will be about 32°.
I have changed motherboards around three times, CPU once and the cooler about 5 times, So far these changes have made minimal to no impact on my temperatures (I originally had an ASUS TUF Z270 board) I clean the system every couple of months to ensure that I can try and keep my temperatures as low as possible in this situation (I have an NZXT h440 with only two drive bays installed to increase airflow) My motherboard refuses to update to it's latest version of F5d and I have attempted to reduce the core voltage as much as I can without causing too much instability.
If anyone can advise me on what to do with any of my problems that'd be really helpful.
Thanks
