Question My 9800x3d 89c on multicore 2024 cinebench.....is this normal?

[Vetrix1996]

I have added 200mhz to the boost clock (5.4ghz) + i have the fan curve on arctic liquid II running in the arctic recommendation for the silent mode and i have an undervolt of -25. 89c seems a little high to me with a high end liquid cooler and a -25 undervolt + a high end mx6 paste.......is this normal? I have it on silent mode as i said but it should not matter as the fans are set to go to 100 percent at 85c

Just because you have liquid cooling hardware, doesn't guarantee you have it optimized. Is the pump at 100% all the time? Do your fan curves max out your radiator fans? Do you have sufficient intake air (or exhaust capacity)?
Have you tested with the side panel removed to ensure you have no airflow restrictions ?

Everything correct here right? The only thing im not sure of is if the case fans up top go up or down, currently have them pointing up as you can see. H500M case by the way

I can't tell fan direction from a picture, but I assume your fans on the radiator pull in cool air. Do you have single fans or push-pull ?
Again, have you tested with the side panel off ?
