Normal temps for threadripper

[the wopster]

what temps should I be seeing under realbench stress stock volts(1.35) no overclock multiplier locked to 35? My chip is hitting 68c, with my custom watercooling 1xtriple 1xdouble which can’t be right and my chip seems to be throttling at stock

Done a test run on my 1920X. Mine is cooled using an EK supremacy block, 45mm thick 420mm and 240mm radiators both with fans just pulling air through. Load temps are what I get running a 2 hour video clip through handbrake. Prime load is using Small FFT with FMA3 instructions. CPU is at 3.975GHz (39.75x 100) and memory is 4x 8GB 3200 C14, running at 1.41V

Ambient 25
Idle 34
load 62
Prime load 73
VRM idle 45
VRM load 58
VRM Prime load 71
Load VCore 1.38V
Idle VCore 1.32V

Is that with just the cpu in the loop?

No, there is a vega 56 in there too.

They are not bad temps for a cpu block that doesn’t work properly

Seems that thermal paste application can play quite a big role in the performance. I watched the gamers nexus video about it not long before I bought the parts and they seemed to find that the very large single blob on the Z of the RYZEN logo on the IHS performed best. (about the size of a bean) I tried that first time using the thermal grizzly paste supplied with the EK block and the temperatures I got were terrible. (around 87 degrees peak) I took it off and reapplied the paste using the same method but using EK ectotherm paste instead and got a drop in temperature to around 77 degrees peak. I then moved my pc out from under my desk to give it more breathing room above which has lowered the temps again to what I've shown above. The drop in temp on the VRM was the biggest simply by moving my pc as it used to peak at 97 degrees, now it only gets to 71.

My VRM temps have never got above 70c

Following up on my ealier post, with an OC to 3.9 temps go to

Idle CPU Temp 32~33 (2.2-3.9ghz all cores) [+4 / +1 C on stock]
Load (single thread) CPU Temp - 62 (3.9ghz all cores) [+11 C on stock]
Stress (allthread) CPU Temp - 65 (3.9ghz all cores) [+11 C on stock]

Thats with 1 hour runs for load and stress

What stress test is that? And what volts? What worries me is there is no way your air cooled block should be out performing my water loop

I must have a dog of a chip, my chip will not do 4ghz on anything under 1.45v but that hits 80c rather quicky, 3.9 1.38v is ok and temps hover around 75c

To be fair the Noctua is excellent. I have one of the big Noctuas on my 1950X, and it's perfect.

Yeah it is a great Cooler as I had one, what I’m saying is my custom loop should be out performing an air cooler

 

[the wopster]

Is it an EK one?

No it the XSPC block

 

[the wopster]

Well I have managed to drop my temps to 70c realbench load by adding 3 more fans to my rad so it’s push pull, but I still feel it’s rather toasty for what I have cooling it and the volts going through it

Well I think I may have worked out why my temps were so high, and would love for someone to explain it to me if they can, when I was Overclocking I was setting the multi to 40 and the volts to 1.4 to get a base(how I set my ryzen1700) and Tctl was hitting 107c and Tdie was hitting 80c, I have now used FID/DID to overclock instead of the multi and now at 1.41v after an hour of AIDA64 my max temps are Tctl 90c and Tdie 63c. If anyone could explain that to me it would be great
