I have a corsair H110i GT that's now idling my system in the high 60's at stock speeds and mid 80's when overclocked.
Specs are
i7 5820K4.3Ghz 1.25v Been running this since the system was built March 2015
Asus X99 Deluxe
Fury X mounted at the back of the chassis
Corsair 32GB RAM DDR4
Corsair H110i with two Noctua Industrial 2000rpm AF14s. Mounted on the top.
EVGA G2 1000W PSU
Well I recently noticed my system was running hotter than usual while rendering and encoding in Premiere Pro, at first I thought it was just the summer. We've been having a hotter than usual one in Ireland where I am,
Then my system started hitting the 90's, then mid 90's and then 104! Well over specs, and it used to max around 80's during long encoding and rendering times.
I took off the cpu block, as I thought something might have gone wrong there. Cleaned it off, applied new Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut using credit card technique/thermal grizzly spreader
Temps were still hot, so took it all apart again, and tried the X method. Still nothing.
I noticed a bit of a rattle from the CPU block after that installation as well, and I'm now running the CPU downclocked just to be able to post there.
It's currently idling in the high 60's, and so is the pump. The pump is apparently at 64 degrees as well, and also at ~3150RPMs. Although if I change the pump speed lower the temps skyrocket even more.
I've also tried loosing and tightening the CPU block down more to see if it was possibly a contact issue, but each time I took the block off the spread looked decent.
I take it I just need to replace the entire closed loop cooler to get this sorted? It also doesn't help I'm using the H440 chassis, although I was considering replacing it soon'ish with the Enthoo Luxe.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
