Kaby temperatures?

Got around to installing my 7700k on an Asrock Z270 itx tonight using a dark rock pro 3 cpu cooler. Upon switching on the bios read 56c which immediately concerned me but it did not rise.

Going into windows hwmonitor showed a cooler 26c at idle and I ran some stress tests using the mobo std profile of x45 multiplier, max voltage was 1.2v

Aida64 temps as high as 71c on individual cores.
Gpu z stress test 63c

These seem far from dangerous but higher than what I was expecting. Doesn't seem much room for overclocking (although admittedly I've already set all cores to 45.)
Cheers
 
Voltage is set to auto and yes I could try that but really don't know much about 'lake' oc, give me Haswell any day!

For reference my old 4790k used to give similar temps at 4.6 and using a water cooler
 
So I reduced it to 1.15v and got 10c less but I also think it dropped the multiplier to 42 so I'll have more of a play tomorrow now.

50+c at uefi level is high, check it's mounted correctly before taking the CPU apart again.

Thanks I did that initially and it could have been tighter, even after tightening it's still high in bios but low in windows so I suspect it's a bios bug.

It's now running 45 multiplier @1.14 and temps of low 60's under stress, although aida64 and cpu-z rather than something more hardcore

My 6700k was quite hot to start with, but temps seemed to drop after a few weeks. I tried reseating the CPU block, even got a new CPU block, to no avail, then it sorted itself out. I have a feeling it was the internal paste as opposed to the stuff I put on.

It's probably the inch or so of tim intel squeeze in with all that black gunk raising up the ihs!
 
Had a very quick and dirty play and got 5.1ghz at 1.4v temps weren't too bad (considering) 85c but If I were to run it at 5ghz it would need a delid.

I daren't go near 1.4v with mine, stress tests on a 4.9GHz overclock at 1.33v has the cores spiking at 97 degrees, on a Corsair H115i. (80 on average though with no throttling)

I have a feeling it may be the almost completely dried out Isopropyl wipes I used to remove the old thermal paste when I installed it, so I'm going to have another crack at it with some proper thermal paste remover and see if that improves things, if not I'll live with it.

I doubt it mate they just seem to run very hot. Hotter than my old Devils canyon chip by some margin!
 
Between die and ihs? Absolutely liquid pro is way to go, waste of time using an ordinary Tim, liquid pro is metal and you can use as much as you like unlike Tim where you need to go sparingly.

That's a golden chip you've got there 5.3 at 1.36v!
 
^^ cool well that's erm cool!

I also dropped the llc from level 1 to level 3 (Asrock board) and got a 5c drop.

Temps now under aida64 spike to 65 but for the most part stay under 60c. 4.5ghz at 1.185. I had to bump the voltage a little as it was unstable during some games.
