Cool.

now set everything to 42 (turbo values and the core ratio)

save+exit.

But at this point i would check for stability using Asus realbench as a few runs of Cinebench dont matter

And monitor your cpu core temp using Realtemp and hope your H80i copes.

Should it be unstable add Vcore.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:15

add vcore what does that mean

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:19

You see where it says 1.26V on CPU-Z, well in the BIOS you can add more to this to make it stable if its unstable during use/testing.

But more Vcore = more heat.

this is my cpu-z and core temp right doing cinebench

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:22

Run it like that then.

Its now 4.2Ghz.

Should it crash, blue screen or something then report back.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:35

The core tempt at 2 parts of the benchmark test went up to 75 for each core during the first part of heavy testing and the last part the video it was 81-79-79-80 across on the cores.

Hmmm.

Two things,

You wont see that sort of temps during every day use.

The H80i cooler is on balanced or low speed fan speed? you can adjust this in the LINk software.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:39

It's h60 v2 cooler not h80i and how do i check that

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:43

Ummm.

the H60 is a small radiator (you did say it was a H80 earlier on which is a thicker rad) so you may very well be reaching its limits of cooling ability.

the H60 fan is connected to the motherboard directly? if it is then you could set maximum voltage to the fan header it is connected too.

The H60 does not use the LINK software.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:46

Ah did i sorry my bad
the radiator part is attached to the air vent on the inside back of the case and the end part is over the cpu on the motherboard if that answers your question

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:48

Thats how it should be mounted.

The single fan is I guess blowing through the rad and out the back of the case?

The fan will have a single cable coming from it? where does it connect to? the pump ontop of the CPU or the board directly?

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:50

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO9APx2yKrg it's installed exactly like this video as i copied that when building my pc

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:51

So its blowing into the case? on the fan frame will be two arrows molded into the plastic showing direction of rotation and flow.

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:54

Hopefully your pump is connected to the correct cpu fan header?

And the fan connected to a system fan header?

If so, try setting those two circled options to I believe the option was "full speed" or similar.

That might get a bit more speed from the H60 fan and thus a bit better temps, but not much as I think the H60 is now the weak point.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:55

it's blowing out of the case i put my hand up against it.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 17:59

Ok i set them both to full speed

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 18:02

It may not make any difference, but it wont hurt.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 18:03

Ok is that all?

stulid · 16 Jan 2015 at 18:04

Yeah.

Now use the PC and keep an eye on temps while doing the stuff you use it for.

scotty1991 · 16 Jan 2015 at 18:54

Okie man thanks for your help i appreciate you taking time to help me.
