Hello, I start monitoring my system temperatures while gaming and when I saw the temperatures and thought that they were and are too high even for my system. So, I’m trying to find why they are so high. My system was:

  • MasterCase H500P Mesh ARGB
  • ASUS ROG Maximus XII Hero
  • Intel Core i9 10900k
  • Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360
  • G.SKILL Trident Z RGB 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4-3200MHz CL14
  • Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12GB GDDR6X OC Edition
  • Seasonic Focus PX-850W 80+ Platinum
  • Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB MLC V-NAND NVMe
  • Samsung 1TB EVO 860 Series 2.5 SSD SATA III
  • Seagate 4TB Barracuda Pro 128Mb 3.5 SATA III 7200rpm
  • Western Digital Blue 1TB 7200rpm 64MB SATA III
  • Fan’s(2x200mm Front Intake | 1x Back Exhaust | 3x Top (radiator) Exhaust)
Then because of the temperatures I thought that was the case and the air flow, so I change my case to a lian li O11 Dynamic XL and got some unifans. Now my system is:

  • Lian Li O11 Dynamic XL ROG
  • ASUS ROG Maximus XII Hero
  • Intel Core i9 10900k
  • Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360
  • G.SKILL Trident Z RGB 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4-3200MHz CL14
  • Asus ROG Strix GeForce RTX 3080 Ti 12GB GDDR6X OC Edition
  • Seasonic Focus PX-850W 80+ Platinum
  • Samsung 970 Evo Plus 500GB MLC V-NAND NVMe
  • Samsung 1TB EVO 860 Series 2.5 SSD SATA III
  • Seagate 4TB Barracuda Pro 128Mb 3.5 SATA III 7200rpm
  • Western Digital Blue 1TB 7200rpm 64MB SATA III
  • Fan’s(3x AL120 Unifan Side Intake | 3x AL120 Unifan Bottom Intake | 1x AL120 Unifan Back Exhaust | 3x Top (radiator) Exhaust)
But even after the case and fans change, the temperatures are still high when playing games or stress testing.

In bios after installing the CPU the only things that I change where pressing F3 to unlock the CPU and turned on the XMP, later I turned on the ai-cooling too.

I did a repaste too, and before I had Arctic MX-4 and now I used Noctua H1, but the temperatures didn’t change.

I played some games and got prints from the hardware monitor, maybe someone can see something that I don’t. I will let the Hardware monitor prints below on this post.

I have 2 screens, one Asus ROG SWIFT PG279Q 1440P 144hz and one Acer S240HL 1080p 60hz. I play on the 1440p one.

On Forza Horizon 4 the CPU temperature stay’s around 65c to 75c with some spikes to 83c/85c;

On Black Desert Online saw CPU temperature from 63c to 77c with spikes to 87c/89c;

On Assassins Creed Origins saw CPU temperatures from (sometimes 69c) 75c to 84c with spikes to 88c/94c;

On CallOfDuty Warzone saw CPU temperatures from 68c to 77c with spikes to 80c/83c;

On Division 2 saw CPU temperatures from 62c to 76c with spikes to 87c/89c;

On cinebench R23 in a 10 min run, saw CPU temperatures from 81c to 89c with spikes to 93c/95c;

On powermax 1.0 after 30 min run, saw CPU temperatures 89c to 95c with spikes of 98c;

I don’t know if this is normal and if I’m just paranoid, but what you think ?

Sorry for my bad English.
And thank you in advance.

Original case has better cooling performance. I have no idea, why you thought to change it.

Use original case and put aio in front intake position.

the temps where higher in the H500P, with the radiator on top and the 2 x 200mm fans in front
the graphics card had higher temps too
