Hi All,
I recently bought the Corsair Vengeance RGB 2x8gb 3200mhz C16 ram kits. Installed, turned on XMP and was getting about 35C-36C on Idle for temps in the first week. When I played CSGO, the RAM would heat up to about 56C on average, I was also getting some stuttering (FPS Var spiking for split seconds). Since I thought the RAM overheating was the issue, I decided to add an extra case fan in the front for better airflow (one exhaust in the back, 2 at the top of case and 2 in take fans in the front). Once I added the front panel fan, the temps of the RAM in idle were about 32C-33C on idle and about 52C-53C while playing CSGO.
A week later, after playing 2 hours of CSGO, my RAM starting running at 42C on idle on average and 57C while playing CSGO on average. I decreased RGB lighting to 25% which at first dropped the avg temps by 2C, but since then it went back up to 42C on average during idle. I cannot seem to drop it back down to 32C on idle. I even turned off the new fan to see if thats what was causing the higher idle temps, but that didn't do much. I turned off my computer for a night and that didn't fix the issue either.
Are those temps normal for this type of RAM?
Specs:
MOBO: ASUS TUF Gaming B560M With WIFI
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070TI
CPU: Intel core I5 11400
PSU: EVGA 850 GT Gold
SSD: 500GB Samsung 980 and 250GB Kingston 300
Case: Montech Fighter 500 with 4 built in fans connected via daisy chain Molex cables to PSU (exhaust fan in the back and 2 at the top, one intake fan in the front)
Added Fan: Noctua NF-P12 1700 PWM as intake fan in the front panel (connected directly to mobo)
Any help would be appreciated!
