Hi guys!
today I come asking for a bit help,
this is my rig:
mobo: Intel DX79SI
CPU: Intel core i7 3820
GPU: AMD R9 380
PSU: EVGA Bronze 600B
RAM: 2X DDR3 Samsung 8GB (each)
CPU cooling: Thermaltake Water Pro 2.0
I recently left the PC turned ON in the night downloding something, (my internet is painfully slow).
then when I wake up, BIOS post showed a message telling me that the last session ended due to temperture event (overheating).
then I downloaded HWMonitor to check the CPU temp, after the computer just turn on everything was fine, even with just 20 - 40% usage the CPU temperature starts to peak over 70°.
I've downloaded a software called "Heavy load" and "CPU-Z" to benchmark the CPU with 100% usage.
after a few menitues temperature goes over 90, hitting 100°, my mobo starts to flash a LED (looking at the user manual, I figured out that this LED tells that the CPU is too hot). See the picture below!.
this is BEFORE running the benchmark:
This is DURING THE benchmark (10 minutes):
this is 5 minutes AFTER the benchmark
some minutes later it goes back to a cool temperature (about 50 - 60°)
so I asume that the water cooler is STILL WORKING but it is not doings its jobs the way it should.
¿could this be due a faulty water pump?, ¿faulty radiator?
some pics of the rig in case you could need then:
This is the the rig:
this is the water pump:
those are the coolant tubes, the one of the right is gets really evenly hot, the one of the left isn't getting cool nor hot.
this is where both fans are connected to the motherboard
this is where the water pump is connected to the motherboard
hope you can help me to finally know if the problem comes from the water cooling system or if it is something else.
If the water system is the problem, would be better to buy the so called EVO 212 Fan cooler?
I use the computer mostly to play and development, and my enviroment temp use to be around 28 - 32° (in case this mathers)
PD: I live in Venezuela, we have being heaving some really terrible electrical troubles, high and low current and voltage peaks, I have the whole computer connected to a Trip Lite UPS (750W), I've just realized that its battery is dead (after any blackout, or any short electrical failure it just turn of and start beeping).
due to these electric failures I had to buy a new PSU (right after the UPS battery's died) could this be a possible cause for the pump's dead?
should I buy a new battery for the UPS?.
I kindly appreciate any help and your pattience for this pretty long post!.
