OCUK Prebuild hitting very high cpu temps

HWhite909 · 5 Dec 2021 at 13:54

I bought this pc https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ocuk-gaming-fsg-plus-mk2-1440p-pre-built-gaming-pc-fs-1da-ep.html from Overclockers around 2 months ago and have noticed the CPU cooler fans getting very loud when playing games.

I did some research and found out how to monitor my temps using a program called msi afterburner and saw highs of 92 in some games. I then looked through my pc welcome pack checklist and the CPU stress testing maximum recorded temperature is 82.

Can anyone help me out? I have not changed anything with the system all I've done is download games and play them and I'm getting paranoid with these high temps.

Is the AIO pump working?

How would i check that?

Is the air flowing through the radiator warm as it exits?
Are the pipes that come from the AIO the same temp or different?

yeah the air is very warm that comes out the top of the radiator

both the pipes are the same temperature and feel a little warm

Temp is under the limits, but something might be amiss. Depends if OcUK stress tested just the CPU, or the CPU while the GPU is running flat out. When the graphics card is dumping up to 250W of heat into the case, the radiator will be less efficient.

i've just done a stress test with cpu-z and the max temperature i got was 83. so more case fans probably needed if the gpu is causing the cpu temp to rise.
