New Build - High 2600K Temps @ 4.8

post #1 of 17
Thread Starter 
Just built my new WC loop. Getting some pretty high cpu temps. Running a 2600K at 4.8 and 1.42 volts with an RX480, Black Ice Stealth GT 240, MP655 (dial set on 5), swiftech apogee hd, and a gtx 680 with koolance fc block.

Basically around 68C during prime95 load.

That seems really high for a custom loop like this. My H100 wasnt much worse. Ive repasted 3 times with different stuff but still seems to run pretty hot. My ambients are around 22-23C. My GPU runs at around 33C during load so I dont think there is too much air in the system unless its trapped in the swiftech block some how. I do have a 90 degree fitting on the rad right before the cpu block but I dont think that would mater too much.

Heres my build log:

Please, any help or suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks!

I don't think the temps are really that bad when you take into consideration you're running it at 4.8GHz with at voltage of 1.4. The block may need to be reseated, perhaps a better thermal medium? Indigo Xtreme is superb and surpasses all others when it's done right.

68C seems about right for the voltage and frequency you're running at.

That's what I figured but wasn't sure and wasn't willing to say yay or nay outright as I haven't experimented with a 2600K.

I'm talking with some experience, of course in my case it's an i7-3820 at 1.45v and 5GHz. They're very similar CPUs and I get around 70C with dual 420 radiators.

Okay thanks. I'll try to order some of that and try it out.

From the looks of things, either the TIM isn't evenly spread or the CPU isn't making even contact with the water block. One core has great temps, the others have ~5C higher temps as shown in your screenshot.

I'm running a 2500k OC'd to 4.8, don't remember what the volts are with the XS-PC Rasa kit and my max temps were 72, keep in mind your Block is Def. better than mine but you also have a GPU in the loop so i'd say that your temps are right where they should be.

And temps being off on different cores by +5 degrees is totally normal, my 2500k does the same thing and so does everyone else's Intel 2nd gen chips.

That's what I gathered, 'tis why I mentioned reseating it. And considering he's ordering some Indigo Xtreme you have to pay extra attention to what you're doing. It's a little more tricky than just putting a dob here and a line there (old intel quad cores tongue.gif)

Indigo Xtreme now has single packs for ~$8 by the way. I helped them test their single packs.

From what i've read, the rule of thumb is to have 120mm worth of radiator for every component you are cooling + 120mm so maybe you need to buy at least another 120mm rad to help with temps.
And temps being off on different cores by +5 degrees is totally normal, my 2500k does the same thing and so does everyone else's Intel 2nd gen chips.
He has an RX480 and GT 240, which is more than enough for his setup. I'm running dual EX420 radiators and get low 60s temp wise overclocked to 5GHz on my 3820.
