My bad, H150 is 360mm and H115 is 280mmOnly 2x 140mm on the H115i. And yeah I felt that having the radiator in front mount and getting cooler CPU temps and slightly higher temps for everything else was the best option, especially at 5.0Ghz across all cores.
From what I've seen from others, and experienced first hand, so far the ZOTAC 2080 has great cooling on its own anyway.
Also a bit better peace of mind having the radiator not sitting above all the expensive gear.
Even then, I'm still undecided how I want to mount it tomorrow.
How much louder / what is dB level with 4c lower temp vs before?
That CPU does run hot.
Even with all that water cooling and additional fans it still runs hotter than my 2700X boosting to 4.5Ghz.
My 6700k was hotter...and 65c is not hot lol
Something is off, it's hot for the Vcore and it's not calling super high VID's so I doubt it's the chip. Other than Vcore try squeezing the SA and IO voltages down as far as you can. 1v range for 4.7 all cores.Radiator Fans wher at 460 rpm so silent mode...I cant stand noise...I'll do a run with fans on 1500 rpm and report back
I meant relative to the amount of cooling you’re using.
Heard the 9900K was a hot chip, just didn’t realise how hot.
EDIT: Nice CB score below. Could only get 1950 multi out of my 2700X @ 4.25 all core OC.

Does it throttle instantly with AVX Prime, or crash hard? Or level out after a bit? What does it report for power used? Not interested in stability, just power the MB is reporting through SVID.
Stacking fans with no resistance does not change amount of airflow. All stacking fans is increase fans' static pressure rating .. so if fans have low pressure ratings and are being used in highly restrictive conditions (like CLC radiators) the added resistance to ariflow will increase airflow through radiator.I have the Fans connected to the H115i via a splitter...I'm getting twice as much airfllow at the same RPM..
Assuming you fans are like the ones everyone else is using your radiator fan noise level is now about 5-6dB(A) louder than it was before at same RPM.Noise is the same...
That makes sense because increased case airflow often lowers component temps by moving their heated air out without it mixing and heated the air going to their coolers.The extra Airflow has also dropped the 1080ti temps down both at load and and idle. Was sitting at about 60c idle...Now its 52 c

Using 4x fans instead of 2x fans increases the noise level. So if your 2x fans were making 28dB(A) each the resulting level is 32dB(A). You added 2x more fans (2x2 fans) and that will increase the total noise level up to 34dBA. As it take about 3dB for most people to hear a change in sound level, you should be able to hear and increase in the overal noise your system is making.

Its difficult to compare system temps, all the variables. So to say a chip is 'hot' on the basis of that is bit much. Get a feel for the power used, which is far more important than Vcore anyway. You're not pushing memory or the cache. Maybe get the power down a bit by lowering the other voltages a notch. That'll lower temps, not that they're near throttling. Just curious why it needs so much VCore, VID's look ok.
