First my specs:
CPU: i9-9900K
MOBO: Aorus Z390 Master
RAM: 32gb (4x8) Corsair Vengeance LPX
GPU: MSI Gaming X trio RTX 3090
SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Pro
Case: Corsair Carbide Air 540 + DEMCiflex Dust Filters
Now the cooling:
Front Fans(intake): 3x 120mm Noctua NF-S12B redux-1200 PWM
Back Fan(exhaust): Noctua 140mm NF-A14 PWM
CPU Cooler: Corsair H115i Elite Cappelix + 2x Noctua 140mm NF-A14 PWM
Paste: Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut
SSD Heat Sink: Sabrent M.2 2280 SSD Rocket Heatsink
I used to hit 30-32 c cooling when I had an OG H115i, but now I'm hitting 36 c. To make things worst I left my PC on for a few hours and somehow Disco Elysium was downloaded and running on the title screen (I'm still not sure how that happened, I finished and uninstalled months ago). My coolant temps were at 50 c!!?!?! I'm wondering what could be the cause? I've reapplied thermal paste twice. Could this be a bad cooler(happened to me with the OG H115i, I RMA'ed it)? Or could it be the dust filters? Or event bad airflow? Below is the inside of my PC any advice would be appreciated!
Thank you
