I tried to add my comp to my profile but aperently I have to make five posts first, so instead of spamming here is my parts list.
Everything is brand new. I had the build setup with the three intake fans that came with the case originally on the right side now at the top of the case (I was informed the in a pc case hot air rising is not really any better), the H115i mounted now mounted on the right side in their place, one 140mm exhust fan on the back (standard for the H700i).
Ever since I built it (two weeks ago) I've noticed some really hot temps from the i9900k. Seems with the MSI Pro Carbon and Intel drivers it decided to turbo boost up to 4.7 constantly, even when gaming and using adobe premiere for exporting. In the MSI bios I dropped the clock down to 4.5, not sure if that actually effected the clock as CPUID HWMonitor still showed clocks of 4700MHz, so I also went into "Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility" and in basic tuning dropped the Core Ratio and Cache Ratio to 4.5GHz.
This seemed to help a bit but every now and again I notice some high fan speeds on my rig and I'll open up "Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility" and it will say the program quit unexpectedly. Which makes me wonder if it's not actually saving these settings between uses when my computer turns off.
That's the main issue I've been dealing with and I thought it was very processor specific... until today.
I played a few games of fortnite(Yeah I know, judge me) and my GTX 1080 got all the way up to 81 degrees. And fortnite should not be a crazy intense game to run.
Display wise I have three monitors:
-Asus 1080 60hz 24in, connected via hdmi
-[Main/Monitor for fullscreen games] Acer 1080 60hz 27in, connected via display port to hdmi cable
-Insignia 1080 60hz 40in, connected via DIV to hdmi cable
So.... Is this display setup too intense for the graphics card? MY old comp running an EVGA 780 could handle it fine...
If needed I can provide a picture of the comp or any other details.
In short... Why is my system running so hot?
