1700 overclocking + temps

Mine is at 3.6 multi with stock cooling on CH6. It downclocks just fine. 35C idle, 70C RB stresstest. 65C on Cinebench R15.

Need to install my Noctua really.
 
Just like Jay and Linus, should own up to monumentally silly computer mistakes.

The weird thing is, I am pretty sure my first iteration of this issue wasn't caused by this as I remember having control of my fans in CAM.

Basically the USB2 header on the mobo had become dislodged :o:o:o:o (this sole header powered an internal USB header hub), though my fans were strangely still spinning and lighting up.

I have mentioned to a friend whilst playing PUBG with him since getting the V56, how quiet my PC was now :p. Hardly surprising when my AIO or case fans weren't spinning beyond whatever idle mode they were on, shooting my CPU temps to nearly 3 digits (and all of the PUBG crashes in the last few weeks).

I think I need to give proper attention to my cable management one weekend :D.
