8700k Are these Temps right?

[rossiboy001]

Been trying to dial in this CPU today was wondering if I am missing something. This is a 5ghz rated delid from OC. Im running a gt110 corsair on performance settings. I have clocked it to 4.7 all cores. speedstep disabled. On Idle it`s approximatly 43-45 on all cores degrees Gaming about 68-72 Degrees. Cinibench CPU test 74-83 degrees. Was not possible on stock bios settings as had to stop tests as it would show upto 100 degees in benchmarking. Have lowered voltages to CPU cache 1.25V Dram 1.25. Should I be lowing them any more. Ill be happy with 4.7 across all cores TBH. But there seems no chance of pushing the chip to the stated 5 ghz even if it will technically do it because of temps.

have you tried reseating the waterblock ?

Those idle temps look way too high. Either a bad cooler mount or your voltage settings are out of whack - what motherboard/voltage settings are you using?

yes i first checked my waterblock. Temps were worse with thermal grizzly which i pasted on. would overheat at idle on stock. Im currently using a pea sized blod of the Noctua NTH1 paste. whichhas got me to at least where I am now. MY VOLTAGE IS AT 1.25V. sorry for caps. im using on screen keyboard my k70 has stopped being detected on all our pc s but thats another story. Delete button seems not to work.

What are idle temps with SpeedStep enabled?

My 8700k @4.7ghz 1.2v cooled by corsair H150i fans on performance 23c idle 38-40c odd while gaming.

I'm usually rocking the balanced speeds. How much more of a difference does performance make? Maybe i should up it.

Too hot, either problem with mount, cooler or delid.

 

[rossiboy001]

With regards to the mount, the only thing different is the inclusion of the cpu tool which is a small piece of plastic which the cpu clips into before inserting it in the socket, But most of it sits under the sides of the mounting bracket and does not interfere with the contact. Ihave dropped the voltage to 1.2V now. speedstep seems not to work it is enabled but core temp still only shows a flat 4.7 mhz. Tried cinibech to see if it is stable and goes through the cycle fine except on the lower voltage it is 3 degrees hotter on the top core with 86 degrees. Idle temps seem to have dropped about a degree ranging from 39-42. First time I have seen a 39 on the display of core temp.

Agreed. Clocked at 4.7GHz on all cores using 'multicore enhancement', mine idles in the low to mid 20s and hits mid to late 30s under 100% load (unless it's 100% Realbench or similar for an hour, in which case it can get into the 70s). OP your 5GHz chip should be able to do 5GHz all day long with 8Pack settings and still stay under 80 degrees. You need to re-check your cooling. Is the pump working? Is it plugged into the correct header?

Mine isn't half as hot as yours when it's running 5GHz all core with 5GHz cache/ring, no AVX offset and 1.35v. It idles around 32 on those settings and hits late 70s under Realbench. You definitely are not seeing normal behaviour. What mobo do you have? Have you messed up a voltage somewhere? LLC? Are p-states and c-states enabled in the BIOS?

I have my Cooler plugged into the CPU fan header. It feelss like its working normal the rad is warm and you can feel the flow vibration through the tubes. It`s on performance and the pump says 3000 rpm something in corsair software. Im using a Asus hero x. I have used this as an overclocking guide, although i have dialled his setting down ect these are the only things i have touched apart from shaving some off the RAM voltage. Just out to work but ill come back tonight and check the other settings you mentioned.

Same mobo as I have. Plug the AIO into the AIO header, not the CPU header. You'll need to go into the UEFI and disable monitoring for the CPU header once you've done that. The 8Pack settings are:

50x 100
Vcore 1.35
Dram voltage 1.375
Io 1.2
Sa 1.22
Cpu standby 1.2
Avx offset 2
Load line level 5-6
Current cap 140%

Change the AIO to the right header and see if that helps first. No point pushing the clock if your cooling isn't doing the job. It'd be worth reseating the cooler as well if that doesn't help.

 

[rossiboy001]

Thanks Rainmaker Im goingto try that tonight. Looking at those voltages the way things have been going I think i will get some sandbags to sit behind first.

 

[HeX]

Sounds like a bad delid, or its lost contact during shipping.

Had a go with these settings however could not find the following or not sure what they meant. Io 1.2, Sa 1.22 Avx offset 2 The rest i changed. It would not boot into windows, maybe something to do with the thre i did ot change. Where would I find them in the menus? Tried swapping the header round. I would say exactly the same temps. Already re seated it again with just a pea sized amount of Noctua NTH1 as maybe trying to paste the thermal grizzly goes to thick if I try to spread that to thin it leaves gaps. Maybe i should try using that as a pea or line method?

not a 8700k, but I can tell you my non delidded 8600k on mid range air cooling is in the 20s celsius at idle.

cryorig H5 universal cooler, also the cooling is compromised as I am using a noctua fan on the heatsink which doesnt fit right (is gap between fan and the metal compromising a few degrees).

Also idle these temps are with most C-States disabled and min clock speed at 3.6ghz in windows power profile. I dont usually disable C-States but on this board at least for now have done as when vcore was going below 1.0v I was getting coil whine.

Your temps just seem whacked.
