New to overclocking my 7700k tempratures.

[s2kdarren]

Hello,
I have a 7700k on an asus Hero Maximus IX mobo and being cooled by a H1100 by corsair AIO.
I have always left things stock running at 4.5 and would see idle temps around 35 (obviously have spikes) and max temps in timespy at 83. when i went into bios all i changed was all cored to 4.7. idle would be around 40 and when I ran timespy again it got right up to 91c on average.

any suggestions on what to do?


I left the stock voltage alone.

Hi, Those numbers are definitely high. Does your radiator heat up properly? Does your pump work? (I have heard of some people getting broken pumps inside AIOs) Also, did you install the cooler correctly? (removed heatsink plastic cover, applied good thermal paste,...).

BTW, what is your voltage? Use CPU-Z reported voltage under stress or benchmark.

thank you for your response. how can I tell if my radiator is heating up properly. obviously my AIO is doing somehting as i can play pubg on stock boost.. temps and not go over 80c. i will check the thermal paste but i have reapplied this before and it seemed fine. pump is definetley pumping. just hope its efficient. my CPUz reads.. 91 Watts / 1.232 Volts

After stress testing for 20-30 minutes, the radiator should be warm/hot, touching it can tell you. Also, you should be able to feel the water moving if you have softer tubes or feel the pump's vibration. Try putting your fans on max speed too, maybe they are working slower to lower noise.

I'm not familiar with timespy, but do note heavy testing places unreasonable amounts of load on your CPU, your gaming temps should be much lower.

BTW, what is your room temp?
