The 'Shire'
I recently bought and installed the Corsair H50 and it got my cpu down to 62f at first glance but my system temperature is still around 75-80, I have the Coolermaster 932 HAF cas and the two huge fans in there as standard then the one that came with the water cooler (I removed 5 other fans as I thought this would do the job alone) it shut down twice (blue screen crash) after installation but has been fine for 20 hours now.

Any suggestions please? I want to never have to worry about cooling again, also is there any software so I can get temperatures without going to the BIOS?

Thanks in advance.

Which fans did you remove - there are 3 big fans, front,side and top so just wondering which you removed.

Have the case but not the cooler .

Did read that the 'correct' orientation of the cpu cooler is to have it sucking air into the case i.e. dumping hot air inside rather than removing it and decided that if I were to buy one I'd not run it this way as I could see temp.issues arising.

It may not be a problem but thought it worth mentioning.

I only removed the ones I had fitted, not the ones already in the case, two on the side and another on the bottom.
 
Thanks for all the help (quickly too!!) I have just emailed Corsair as I thought the radiator would get hot and in their video for installation they say to point the fan inwards which would suggest blowing hot air into the case which seems a little retarded, I will see what they say but I'm thinking of turning their fan round and also fitting another to the front of the radiator to completely push out the hot air.

Again thanks
 
Yes that is spot on, so by following Corsairs video i've created a problem I was trying to get rid of (obviously they don't know what case I have and expect clever people to know what they are doing, but they are wrong!)

Fans will be added asap hopefully on a quieter speed with all the knowledge I have now, CHEERS chap's
 
I now have two fans either side of the radiator and system temp is at 38C and the cpu is now at a whopping 31C, Job done on that front now for my new problems in a new thread, thanks a lot for all your help chaps
