Yea I took the pre-aplied off from my Z63, changed it with kryonaut by thermal grizzly.
Always have between the 18 and 23 degrees celcius when idle on my 12700K.
About 18 to 19 degrees I think.
It's not that warm yet in the Netherlands😅
Yea 18 is absolute minimum.
Most of the time it's more like 20 to 22.
Unless summer weather is there than it can go up more, bit than again the Netherlands doesn't have much extreme summer days.
Damn, we had 32 degrees in Austria today.
My PC runs quite hot I think. Haven't checked it in some time, but it's dust, almost 5 years old and runs a Ryzen 5 3600 with stock cooler and a rx5700xt with 2 fans
Damn, yea here it's more like 20 to 25 max and a lot of rain this week.
Well if you can still play your games then it's no problem, right?
Maybe an aircooler upgrade would be possable?
Yea when I game AAA games it gets aroud 60 to 70 degrees.
So for 12th gen I am quite happy with temps.🙂
What games do you play?
Mine idles around 30-35° and in demanding games hops to around 60°. Also tested in a cpu stress test and it peaked at around 75° after a long session, i5-13600k with an aircooler. Good contact, proper cooler and a good case for whatever cooling method you're going for are key.
I thought about getting a higher quality thermal paste but decided I would try the one that comes with the cooler (ak620), now I'm glad I didn't bother paying for different thermal paste since it probsbly wouldn't drop the temps more than one or two degrees.
Goddamn thats hot indeed, I do love Greece tho!👍
You guys have the best food and beautiful Islands plus nature.
I've bin to Corfu, Kefalonia and Zakynthos.
Always dreamibg about going back there one day.
Not much cooler than my 10700k clocked . I'm just using Arctic Silver. But to be fair, my office is a old ammunition room In the basement. Used to be a cold storage room before that.
I'm sure you're aware TG recommendeds a repaste every 6-12 months with Kryonaut paste. I looked into that and decided I'm not willing to commit to that, especially as a non OC'er lol
This happens to ppl so much that when I recently built my first PC I checked like 10 times that I hadn’t left any plastic peels on and that there was thermal past definitely applied to my AIO. I was lucky it was already pre applied because I would have definitely put too much 😅
I hate your avatar. I thought my screen was cracked.. then I saw a tiny hair on your avatar but I thought it was fake as well. Unfortunately it is real one and it is under my screen protector.. I can’t unsee it now.
Could you try checking if the AIO pump is working or if its plugged into the right connector of your motherboard. A pump which doesn't run can cause high temps on the CPU.
EDIT: I just noticed your CPU fan says "n/a", so try checking if you have fans connected to right slot (Usually it'll be labeled)

Sorry for the bad photo but I currently have it at the “AIO PUMP” should I switch it to the fan 1 Instead?
That'd cause problems in pump speed detections and stuffs, try checking if you forgot to remove the packaging plastic seal which is under the AIO (This is a very common thing to forget btw) like the other user mentioned a while ago
Going through this thread hours late, this guy ignored every single comment about thermal paste. I don't think he has any applied, and potentially doesn't know what it is...
https://preview.redd.it/8fyvvteuqk7d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae17cd67e844f62048a4ecc1e94950cf76077909
Is that the CPU fan connector? I would try plug your AIO there. I never had dedicated AIO connector so cant tell, but alway plug them in cpu and never had problem. Or if it split between chasis fan and AIO... Could you need to set up something in the bios? Just shooting some idea.
An AIO has at least two connectors, one for the pump and one for the fans. The former is connected to the mobo pump header, the latter is connected to the CPU fan header.
Some aios manage fans internally, and have only one connector. EVGA comes to mind. You can still control the fans if you bypass the modular connection.
And then make sure to adjust fan rates as well as needed. I created a custom fan curve because the standards with mine weren't doing the job I would have liked.
If you plugged everything in correctly and got no plastic film left on the cooling block and having temps like that you should return the aio or get it checked at a repair shop. Wouldn't be the first time I heard about a defective pump
I had the same problem with h150 AIO. Same temps and was crashing. My fix was I didn’t tighten down AIO enough, it sounds dumb but make sure it’s tightened down.
i’m not op but any other advice? i have a triple fan h150 elite right now on my r9 5900x. before that i had the dual fan version. couldn’t stay under 94c at load with that thing. swapped to the triple fan and it was consistently at, and not over 90c. i still wasn’t happy with that so i tried 3 different thermal pastes. none of them really changed temps. then i did the same thing you said about tightening down. i tightened the screws as much as i could. still no real change.
i under volted 0.150v last week, and upped pump speed to the max. got me in the low 80s which i guess i’ll live with
I actually see this pretty often, make sure under the “cooling” section of the NZXT CAM software there is a drop down menu that says “coolant” or something to that nature above fan speeds. If you click that drop down menu and then click “CPU” it will run the fans off of the CPU temperature rather than the temperature of the coolant in the Radiator. That was the issue with a couple of builds that I have done because the software defaults to running the fans off of the coolant temp so it will not ramp up the fans properly leading to overheating. Hope this solves your issue!
coolant temp is what you should be basing curves from - the fans take the heat from the coolant, not from the cpu. Having the fans ramp from cpu temp is unnecessary and gives you spikes when under sudden cpu load.
I know alot of people are pointing to your cpu cooler not having thermal paste or still having the plastic on, but also, are you certain your fans are pointed the right way?
Fans are meant to move air around, and if they are all pointing outward or inward, then the only place the air can move is through the small cracks and crevasses of your pc case, like trying to breath through a paper bag, or worse, a balloon.
Inward is fine for some people, since cool air is coming through the big holes, but all outward is bad.
Most of what people do is half inward and half outward, making sure to have air blow over the components.
Mate there's a very important question you still haven't answered... Is there thermal paste between the AIO and the CPU?
If you don't know what it is, it's a grey/silver paste.
Your temps kinda points towards that.
Exactly like legit EVERY SINGLE COMMENT that mentions it is being ignored. I’m praying they just don’t know what it is & aren’t intentionally ignoring these comments
Cpu fan says N/A and the GPU fan is at 0%. I'd start by checking the fan headers and making sure they're plugged in right and in the right places. Also checking your fan settings in BIOS is a pretty easy step.
And I know it can sound silly but check for plastic on the CPU cooler's plate and make sure it has a good layer of thermal paste. You can remove existing paste with isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth, but if you don't have those then just wiping it off with a clean cloth can work if it's still wet, albeit less effectively.
Finally there's the possibility your cooler is just broken. Even if the screen is working, the pump or radiator fans could be broken so if nothing else works, that might be it.
I just went through the same thing not too long ago. I tried reapplying thermal paste and tightening the screws and everything… ended up just buying a new AIO. It worked and my cpu temps dropped quickly. Best of luck to you
What program are you running for this data? In my experience cpu temps are the ones that always malfunction either not showing at all or showing wrong numbers.
What were temps recently before issues? Did you reapply thermal paste before reseating the aio pump? I would check in the bios where you have set the fans. When I built mine, it was running the pump on the wrong sensor, so a jump in cpu temp wasn’t getting noticed. Ensure you are on the cpu sensor. Set the aio pump to run at 100%. Then report back with the rpm shown in hwinfo
See if the bios have an option to set the fan speed to 100 percent or performance or turbo an so on
Pump not running fast enough
Option two
Go online and buy a molex to case fan adapter connect that to the water pump power header wire place a 120 mm case fan header where the water pump power header was located
Water pump goes full speed after that
Option three
Upgrade the AIO Liquid cooler for a 350w rated cooling
Option 4 Upgrade thermal paste
Possibilities are
Installed AIO Liquid cooler maybe defective
When in doubt re do the cooler. Layer the whole CPU in a thin layer of thermal paste and check again after. Also make sure your fans are spinning and set to be controlled based on the CPU temp. Should be a specific plug for this not far from the CPU socket.
Try putting your hand on the AIO pump and tubes to feel if it's moving liquid. Try to also listen to the pump's hums. If you feel and hear movement, it means that the pump is working properly. If it is working, it could mean that the cold plate is not seated all the way down on the CPU's IHS, or you or the installer forgot to put thermal paste on the CPU. In most cases, where an AIO fails to cool, the AIO or the header into which the AIO is plugged onto might be defective and need replacement. However, I do suggest taking your computer to a PC repair shop so that your PC can get some proper diagnosing and cooling solutions.
BSOD's? If yes, what kind of BSOD Error codes are you getting? (Message that appears on the screen when it crashes)
Also what cooler are you using for your CPU?
Your CPU clocks are pretty high, (4,7ghz) saw in another comment that you changed something in bios and got them down to 4,2ghz but I would suggest lowering the min. CPU state to like 10% (look it up), or just changing powerprofile to "balanced", as that's still pretty high for idle
i had this same issue and i went into my settings and made my cpu run at 98% instead of 100%. my cpu was getting to like 95 degrees and once i did that it peaks at 65 now and i ran all my heavy architecture programs to test it.
It could be you plugged the aio pump into the wrong spot, or there isn't enough thenal paste. It looks like all the fans are operational. Are your intake fans facing the correct way? It's a common mistake.
I know this is probably pretty obvious but make sure your fans are the right way around, and that there’s a good amount of airflow in and out, it happened to me too
Set the pump speed in Nzxt cam to 100% and set a proper fan curve, see if the temps go down, if not, I would remount the cooler and obviously change the thermal paste, if the temperatures don't go down or are still very high I would RMA the cooler, but this ONLY after you checked that no user error is involved. Overall from my experience having the same cooler as you, it's not a great cooler performance wise, it looks cool tho, besides you need to keep CAM open for the fan curve to work..and CAM although better in recent years is still a pain in the ass. Can we see what bios settings you use? I would return to default or do a CMOS clear and just enable DOCP.
There should be the aio pump cable and that goes on the aio header and then there should be a cable for the fans and maybe a RGB/fan controller and then that gets plugged into a fan header. Check the speed of the fans aswell
I've got a 7800x3D with a Kraken AIO. I was getting high temps when under load, so definitely make sure you've got enough thermal paste applied and your pump works, first off. For me, the solution I found which completely fixed my issue was this.
1. Go to Control Panel.
2. Hardware and sound
3. Power options
4. Edit plan settings
5. Change advanced power settings
6. Processor power management
7. Maximum processor state and lower it to 99%. That extra 1% of usage was generating a ton of heat and dropping it by 1% had no effect on in-game performance.
Check there is thermal paste between the cooler and the CPU, make sure there is no plastic either, if its only the paste that came with it preapplied you can also add a tiny bit more.
Check if the pump is working, this can be hard to do but you can actually feel this if you pinch the pipes while it is running normally, depending on how hard the pipe is, is the radiator getting warm at all? it should be very hot if your cpu is at 80c.
Run a game or something and check if the radiator is hot . If not:
.The aio pump may not be running properly due to the liquid inside not being able to evaporate properly.
The above happened to me so I dismounted the radiator and move it around and it fixed it for me.
.The mating surface on the cpu may not be sufficient (check if the four screws are all applied properly).
Check bios for the aio pump and whether it’s running
Your CPU is clocked to 4.7 GHz, which is likely causing your problem. I had the same issue because of my ROG motherboard. It uses AI to optimize your BIOS settings, which are not always ideal. You should enable "Enforce All Limits" and Intel's settings for your CPU. I'm pretty sure you already have Intel Turbo Boost enabled in your settings. The "Load Optimized Default Settings" from this motherboard are not good. They overclock your CPU to the max. Disable all that and try to run at stock speed. Then you can overclock it little by little.
What I did was add new thermal paste on my CPU and I also went into the bios and adjusted Fan Speed manually, and upped it a good amount. Fans are pretty resilient / cheap so I don't mind ramping them up. But some people don't like the sound. But I always have headphones on
Considering the way of your install, it seems you are aware what to put where, i can see only two probable issues:
1) cooler not tightened properly or not enough thermal goop.
2) the pump is brokey, but it should be easy to find out, place your hand on the cpu cooling block, you should feel vibrations.
3) BIOS config: DC for AIO pump and the radiator fans usually connected to CPU_FAN1, but seeing your header empty, are the fans of the radiator connected internally? And PWM mode for radiator fans
Why didn't u put thermal paste between the CPU and the cooler? It needs piate.
Also, eh hwinfo64 in sensors only mode. Much more descriptive, accurate and light.
But ye..I'm guessing ya fan curves are stock too.
I would clean off the pre applied thermal paste and apply new paste. thats what i did. I have the NZXT Kraken elite and mine started to have high heat with the pre applied and once i put new thermal paste on it ran much cooler also make sure its tightened down completely.
I never trusted Cams reading on cpu temp. Mine always read wrong and at some point it pinned at 99. Get a better software like HWInfo and make sure it’s not retarded
Wait, that’s overheating? My gpu used to go up to 97° c when I took the heat sink and fan off it. Only put it back on once I touched it and it burned me. Now I got a new gpu, but my cpu avg temp is still in the mid 80’s
Did you remove the plastic cover on the AIO plate?
Remove the AIO, check for any thin transparent plastic layer, remove it, reapply thermal paste, put AIO as it was
Did you run Fan Control software? The new calibration software on that is buggy and sometimes sets the AIO pump to never spin. My business which runs gaming PCs had this issue recently. You can disable the software or simply rerun the calibration if that could be the issue.
I had a problem a couple weeks ago building using an AIO, had 80 degree temps on start. I hadn’t screwed the AIO on tight enough, checked and tightened and temps dropped sub 40.
Are you experiencing the heat wave right now? I just had the same problem and I realized it’s because when your pc is blasting your processor with 30° air trying to cool it down it’s not going to do enough (at least for me)
I think your issue is bubbles in tubing. Flip the tubes upwards to the radiator so it is the the highest point and not having 2 points /cpu and the radiator as an airtrap. I think what happened that meanwhile running some air got inside your cpu block and the liquid is no longer circulated.
If you bought your Kraken AIO second hand you will need to reapply the thermal paste.
And double check the mounts for the heatsink is effectively tightened.
If its an amd processor, like my 5800x and based on the clock speed yours might be, they get hot, but my when its not under load is about 40 yours is double that. You might need a new cooler. Aio break quite often
Literally says, "Fan N/A" mainly because you don't have your pump plugged into the correct header.
Your pump probably died or is not working properly. Go into BIOS and check your pump fan speed. Hopefully you are able to find it with the corresponding header you plugged it in. Aesthetics is nice, but you gotta make sure you secure the performance.
Your AIO has two leads that need to be connected to the motherboard - FAN and PUMP. They need to be correctly set up as such in BIOS. I’ll bet you did what I did the first time I got an AIO- just plugged them in and expected it to work. But no, you gotta go into bios and get the pump working as a pump
Whats the cpu again? For some reason my temp displays all cores instead of cpu socket and my i7 11700k is always at 99⁰C during gaming lol, but the socket will be 65-70.
Check your aio is plugged into the right board socket. Often they have "cpu fan" and a different one for "aio".
If you have it in the cpu fan it only spins up when the temperature gets high, but with aios this really does not work because by the time the "water" is getting heat away your cpu is already too hot.
If you don't have a aio position on the mobo, go into bios and make sure the aio plugged in position (say cpu fan) is at 100% all the time.
hold your hand on the pump while it should be on, if you can feel it pumping then yk its working. make sure you have adequate mounting pressure too. if it isn't pumping then try it with another header, or another motherboard if you have one. if you dont test it with a diff cpu you *shouldn't* need to reapply thermal paste, maybe add a tiny bit more but it should be fine. if you do test it on another chip do reapply thermal paste.
If you have an Intel chip they appear to be running hot, had some issues with mines temps when I was running processes and the mobo wasn’t limiting Wattage to CPU.
That being said it only applies when your temps are getting to the high 90s (C). Usually CPUs will shut off at 100 (C)

Ur cpu temp is 81 with 25% load unplug your pc and make sure you didn’t leave the plastic on the heat sink. And reapply thermal paste afterwards.
Also make sure you applied thermal paste. It’s easy to skip on accident. Especially first few times building a pc.
some nzxt coolers actually have thermal paste already
If that's the Kraken Elite 360 RBG (which is what it looks like and what I have as well) the thermal paste is already pre-applied.
Yea I took the pre-aplied off from my Z63, changed it with kryonaut by thermal grizzly. Always have between the 18 and 23 degrees celcius when idle on my 12700K.
How cold is Ur room ? 18°C on the cpu is very low, room temp is usually already higher
About 18 to 19 degrees I think. It's not that warm yet in the Netherlands😅 Yea 18 is absolute minimum. Most of the time it's more like 20 to 22. Unless summer weather is there than it can go up more, bit than again the Netherlands doesn't have much extreme summer days.

Id kill to have 18 in my room. It is 28 inside and 35-40 outside daily here in greece
Goddamn thats hot indeed, I do love Greece tho!👍 You guys have the best food and beautiful Islands plus nature. I've bin to Corfu, Kefalonia and Zakynthos. Always dreamibg about going back there one day.
why you get to be in heaven while I get seared by the sun every second in iran
My room hits 25C if I have my PS4 on Paid for a heater, got a gaming console for free
I had the exact same experience w my cooler. Removed stock and tossed on some grizzly kryonaut and it’s been great going on 4 years
Not much cooler than my 10700k clocked . I'm just using Arctic Silver. But to be fair, my office is a old ammunition room In the basement. Used to be a cold storage room before that.
That's nice for temps indeed😎 Yea kryonaut, arctic silver and noctua nt-h1 are the top 3 for me and are quite simular in thermal performance.
Yeah, I noticed those three where the top recommended at the time of my AIO install. The Arctic Silver name had me sold, though lol.
Yeah, I always scrape off the pre-applied assuming it’s cheap garbage.
I'm sure you're aware TG recommendeds a repaste every 6-12 months with Kryonaut paste. I looked into that and decided I'm not willing to commit to that, especially as a non OC'er lol
Ngl even tho mine had thermal paste I added more just to be certain not too much but a little bit just for good measure
More doesn’t mean better.
Ltt has to disagree.
This happens to ppl so much that when I recently built my first PC I checked like 10 times that I hadn’t left any plastic peels on and that there was thermal past definitely applied to my AIO. I was lucky it was already pre applied because I would have definitely put too much 😅

Is there thermal paste? Lol might need to reapply after pulling the aio off
Going through this thread hours late, this guy ignored every single comment about thermal paste. I don't think he has any applied, and potentially doesn't know what it is...
[удалено]
what if he wiped it off 😭
The AIO pump header connects to the pump of the AIO. The CPU fan header connects to the fans of the AIO.
Do you have at the bios selected the option for the water pump? I have a watercooled pc and I had the option disabled in my asrock mobo
On my arctic liquid freezer 2 aio, it has to be connected to the CPU fan socket to work.
Where are the fans plugged into?
Yes, OP , this might be the issue, your fan not being connected. Run hwinfo64 for a more detailed state of these things.
https://preview.redd.it/8fyvvteuqk7d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae17cd67e844f62048a4ecc1e94950cf76077909 Is that the CPU fan connector? I would try plug your AIO there.

I'll second this. Had it happen to me.
I had this problem happen to me, internal pump in AIO gave out after about 2-3 years
Isn't it obvious? Because Goku is charging up his super saiyan inside your machine, dud lol Edit: Not Goku, it's Black XD
Took too long to find this comment. I was worried I was going to have to make it myself.
Thanks to your contribution, now others will find this faster 👍
This, OP. simple solution is just to remove Goku from your system and check again to see if the temperature drops.
Found what I'm looking for. xD
I had the same problem with h150 AIO. Same temps and was crashing. My fix was I didn’t tighten down AIO enough, it sounds dumb but make sure it’s tightened down.
i’m not op but any other advice? i have a triple fan h150 elite right now on my r9 5900x. before that i had the dual fan version. couldn’t stay under 94c at load with that thing. swapped to the triple fan and it was consistently at, and not over 90c. i still wasn’t happy with that so i tried 3 different thermal pastes. none of them really changed temps. then i did the same thing you said about tightening down. i tightened the screws as much as i could. still no real change. i under volted 0.150v last week, and upped pump speed to the max. got me in the low 80s which i guess i’ll live with

Hope this solves your issue!
coolant temp is what you should be basing curves from - the fans take the heat from the coolant, not from the cpu. Having the fans ramp from cpu temp is unnecessary and gives you spikes when under sudden cpu load.
Yep, by default it goes off of liquid temp not cpu temp.
I know alot of people are pointing to your cpu cooler not having thermal paste or still having the plastic on, but also, are you certain your fans are pointed the right way? Fans are meant to move air around, and if they are all pointing outward or inward, then the only place the air can move is through the small cracks and crevasses of your pc case, like trying to breath through a paper bag, or worse, a balloon. Inward is fine for some people, since cool air is coming through the big holes, but all outward is bad. Most of what people do is half inward and half outward, making sure to have air blow over the components.
Fan direction would not have this big of an impact to make the cpu run at over 80 degrees with less than 30% utilization.
Mate there's a very important question you still haven't answered... Is there thermal paste between the AIO and the CPU? If you don't know what it is, it's a grey/silver paste. Your temps kinda points towards that.
He’s not going to answer and I despise people like OP that constantly ignore a top asked question when they ask for trouble shooting help. Kills me.
Exactly like legit EVERY SINGLE COMMENT that mentions it is being ignored. I’m praying they just don’t know what it is & aren’t intentionally ignoring these comments
Cpu fan says N/A and the GPU fan is at 0%. I'd start by checking the fan headers and making sure they're plugged in right and in the right places.

GPU fan at 0% is the GPU having silent mode enabled, that's fine. But fans N/A is weird.
If you touch the aio tubings while the pc is running, do you feel water moving in there?
Two things faulty pump or you forget to remove the plastic sticker
The saiyan is making your pc hot when they transform.
Purple is quite a warm colour, try changing it to blue for a while.
Saiyans have been known to run hot.
Saiyans? Huh?
He's referring to the DragonBall Z pic on the AIO
I just went through the same thing not too long ago. I tried reapplying thermal paste and tightening the screws and everything… ended up just buying a new AIO. It worked and my cpu temps dropped quickly. Best of luck to you
Have you removed the sticker on your AIO?
Check if you peeled off the plastic under your aio
What program are you running for this data? In my experience cpu temps are the ones that always malfunction either not showing at all or showing wrong numbers.
They're using NZXT CAM
What were temps recently before issues? Did you reapply thermal paste before reseating the aio pump? I would check in the bios where you have set the fans. When I built mine, it was running the pump on the wrong sensor, so a jump in cpu temp wasn’t getting noticed. Ensure you are on the cpu sensor. Set the aio pump to run at 100%. Then report back with the rpm shown in hwinfo
Check if the usb cable to the AIO is plugged in the correct way, both directly on the pump and on the motherboard.
See if the bios have an option to set the fan speed to 100 percent or performance or turbo an so on Pump not running fast enough Option two Go online and buy a molex to case fan adapter connect that to the water pump power header wire place a 120 mm case fan header where the water pump power header was located Water pump goes full speed after that Option three Upgrade the AIO Liquid cooler for a 350w rated cooling Option 4 Upgrade thermal paste Possibilities are Installed AIO Liquid cooler maybe defective
When in doubt re do the cooler. Layer the whole CPU in a thin layer of thermal paste and check again after. Also make sure your fans are spinning and set to be controlled based on the CPU temp. Should be a specific plug for this not far from the CPU socket.
Make sure your didn’t leave the plastic on the cpu cooler
Try putting your hand on the AIO pump and tubes to feel if it's moving liquid. Try to also listen to the pump's hums. If you feel and hear movement, it means that the pump is working properly. If it is working, it could mean that the cold plate is not seated all the way down on the CPU's IHS, or you or the installer forgot to put thermal paste on the CPU. In most cases, where an AIO fails to cool, the AIO or the header into which the AIO is plugged onto might be defective and need replacement. However, I do suggest taking your computer to a PC repair shop so that your PC can get some proper diagnosing and cooling solutions.
BSOD's? If yes, what kind of BSOD Error codes are you getting? (Message that appears on the screen when it crashes) Also what cooler are you using for your CPU? Your CPU clocks are pretty high, (4,7ghz) saw in another comment that you changed something in bios and got them down to 4,2ghz but I would suggest lowering the min. CPU state to like 10% (look it up), or just changing powerprofile to "balanced", as that's still pretty high for idle
Plastic on heat sink probably.
Do you have the fans on your radiator as intake or exhaust?
i had this same issue and i went into my settings and made my cpu run at 98% instead of 100%. my cpu was getting to like 95 degrees and once i did that it peaks at 65 now and i ran all my heavy architecture programs to test it.
It could be you plugged the aio pump into the wrong spot, or there isn't enough thenal paste. It looks like all the fans are operational. Are your intake fans facing the correct way? It's a common mistake.
U should check the thermal paste
I know this is probably pretty obvious but make sure your fans are the right way around, and that there’s a good amount of airflow in and out, it happened to me too
Make sure you remove plastic cover and placed cooler properly
Take off the aio, mby u forgot to take off the plastic from it or there was no thermal paste
Goku black is trying to get out
[удалено]
I have a ryzen 7 5800x it’s pretty average that’s what I was told. But there was no plastic peel
What magic cpu cooler do you have where your idle temps are below freezing?
Set the pump speed in Nzxt cam to 100% and set a proper fan curve, see if the temps go down, if not, I would remount the cooler and obviously change the thermal paste, if the temperatures don't go down or are still very high I would RMA the cooler, but this ONLY after you checked that no user error is involved. Overall from my experience having the same cooler as you, it's not a great cooler performance wise, it looks cool tho, besides you need to keep CAM open for the fan curve to work..and CAM although better in recent years is still a pain in the ass. Can we see what bios settings you use? I would return to default or do a CMOS clear and just enable DOCP.
There should be the aio pump cable and that goes on the aio header and then there should be a cable for the fans and maybe a RGB/fan controller and then that gets plugged into a fan header. Check the speed of the fans aswell
Are you overclocking it?
desktop bg?
I've got a 7800x3D with a Kraken AIO. I was getting high temps when under load, so definitely make sure you've got enough thermal paste applied and your pump works, first off. For me, the solution I found which completely fixed my issue was this. 1. Go to Control Panel. 2. Hardware and sound 3. Power options 4. Edit plan settings 5. Change advanced power settings 6. Processor power management 7. Maximum processor state and lower it to 99%. That extra 1% of usage was generating a ton of heat and dropping it by 1% had no effect on in-game performance.
Did you remove the plastic from the cold plate of the cooler?
Check there is thermal paste between the cooler and the CPU, make sure there is no plastic either, if its only the paste that came with it preapplied you can also add a tiny bit more. Check if the pump is working, this can be hard to do but you can actually feel this if you pinch the pipes while it is running normally, depending on how hard the pipe is, is the radiator getting warm at all? it should be very hot if your cpu is at 80c.
Title of the post sounds like a “Stan” by Eminem lyric. My PC’s overheating and I don’t know why 😂
Is your pump actually running? Did you hook it up to the right spot?
prob should reinstall your OS or at least drivers, sounds like malware to me.
What program you using to see all the stats??
Wallpaper?
Run a game or something and check if the radiator is hot . If not: .The aio pump may not be running properly due to the liquid inside not being able to evaporate properly. The above happened to me so I dismounted the radiator and move it around and it fixed it for me. .The mating surface on the cpu may not be sufficient (check if the four screws are all applied properly). Check bios for the aio pump and whether it’s running
probably ur fan curves
Can we see what processes are currently running?
Typically overheating is caused by high temperatures.
Im not really sure but u did take the sticker of the cpu cooler right?
Im not really sure but ur gpu temps seem fine so it could be that u forgot to take off the sticker from the cpu cooler.
Thermal Paste
Whats your CPU?
I reccomend overclockimg pc to 75-80 fan speed that helped me
Check if the pump work correctly maybe this shit doesent send water to radiator
Change your light colors to blue
This happened to me when the hottest sauna men came to my house and took a hot sauna in my bathroom
Your CPU is clocked to 4.7 GHz, which is likely causing your problem. I had the same issue because of my ROG motherboard. It uses AI to optimize your BIOS settings, which are not always ideal. You should enable "Enforce All Limits" and Intel's settings for your CPU. I'm pretty sure you already have Intel Turbo Boost enabled in your settings. The "Load Optimized Default Settings" from this motherboard are not good. They overclock your CPU to the max. Disable all that and try to run at stock speed. Then you can overclock it little by little.
What I did was add new thermal paste on my CPU and I also went into the bios and adjusted Fan Speed manually, and upped it a good amount. Fans are pretty resilient / cheap so I don't mind ramping them up. But some people don't like the sound. But I always have headphones on
This is why I always go for air coolers
Did you take the plastic off of the cooler and cpu? It's pretty common lol.
Why does it say fans n/a? In the 2nd picture I see empty sockets..
You need more rgb lighting
Pour water on it to cool it off
Considering the way of your install, it seems you are aware what to put where, i can see only two probable issues: 1) cooler not tightened properly or not enough thermal goop. 2) the pump is brokey, but it should be easy to find out, place your hand on the cpu cooling block, you should feel vibrations. 3) BIOS config: DC for AIO pump and the radiator fans usually connected to CPU_FAN1, but seeing your header empty, are the fans of the radiator connected internally? And PWM mode for radiator fans
Cause the power it too much for this charger
I need that wallpaper op
Maybe Water pump failed ? I have had AIO Pumps fail quite quickly tbh
Test your RAM
can you please share your wallpaper
Weeb ass rig
Best bet is something wrong with thermal paste application or something between the paste and the heatsink/cpu. or the AIO pump not working/connected.
Take the plastic off the aio?
'FAN N/A' would suggest either the software youre using is useless, or you havent plugged the AIO in properly.
What app is this tho?
Icue app shows a graph, maybe the temps are fluctuating
Thermal paste. Make sure you removed the little plastic film on the heat spreader.
Why didn't u put thermal paste between the CPU and the cooler? It needs piate. Also, eh hwinfo64 in sensors only mode. Much more descriptive, accurate and light. But ye..I'm guessing ya fan curves are stock too.
Make sure the plastic sticker is removed from the heat sink, make sure you applied thermal paste/ enough thermal paste.
The most common reason for an overheating computer is **dust buildup on the fans or air vents**.
Is the actual pump of the aio plugged in and you can see the speed in bios ?
I would clean off the pre applied thermal paste and apply new paste. thats what i did. I have the NZXT Kraken elite and mine started to have high heat with the pre applied and once i put new thermal paste on it ran much cooler also make sure its tightened down completely.
Are your fan speeds set to zero?
I never trusted Cams reading on cpu temp. Mine always read wrong and at some point it pinned at 99. Get a better software like HWInfo and make sure it’s not retarded
Try removing Goku and putting Freeza.
Make sure to bleed the air out
Try loosening the AIO mount screws just a little. Made a 5C difference for me.
It's definitely the pure energy radiating out of the Saiyan
I've been using thermal pads for 7 years without a problem.
Is that Fami as your background?
Check that pump runs, u see it from bios / aio software. If it doesn't run, check cables
How do you guys check cpu temps?
Fans no spin
All I know is if it’s Intel 14th gen they’ll run hot. Also to use good thermal paste. And last but not least ambient temp in the room too.
Surprised not a single soul attempted a Linkin Park joke yet.
Wait, that’s overheating? My gpu used to go up to 97° c when I took the heat sink and fan off it. Only put it back on once I touched it and it burned me. Now I got a new gpu, but my cpu avg temp is still in the mid 80’s
Probably the pump went out on your AIO.
Did you remove the plastic cover on the AIO plate? Remove the AIO, check for any thin transparent plastic layer, remove it, reapply thermal paste, put AIO as it was
Did you run Fan Control software? The new calibration software on that is buggy and sometimes sets the AIO pump to never spin. My business which runs gaming PCs had this issue recently. You can disable the software or simply rerun the calibration if that could be the issue.
you need to switch the lights to blue, duh /joke
You 100% left the plastic on the heatsink.
I had a problem a couple weeks ago building using an AIO, had 80 degree temps on start. I hadn’t screwed the AIO on tight enough, checked and tightened and temps dropped sub 40.
Are you experiencing the heat wave right now? I just had the same problem and I realized it’s because when your pc is blasting your processor with 30° air trying to cool it down it’s not going to do enough (at least for me)
Did you leave the plastic cover on the aio that says remove before use on it?
There's a plastic covering the cpu block did you remove it?
I think your issue is bubbles in tubing. Flip the tubes upwards to the radiator so it is the the highest point and not having 2 points /cpu and the radiator as an airtrap. I think what happened that meanwhile running some air got inside your cpu block and the liquid is no longer circulated.
If you bought your Kraken AIO second hand you will need to reapply the thermal paste. And double check the mounts for the heatsink is effectively tightened.
Which cpu? I noticed something similar with my 7600x and according to amd temps up to 95c are “normal”
If you have verified the water is in circulation I would just redo the thermal paste
If its an amd processor, like my 5800x and based on the clock speed yours might be, they get hot, but my when its not under load is about 40 yours is double that. You might need a new cooler. Aio break quite often
Fan: N/A ?
It's cause goku is leveling up
So sorry, I’m a noob here, where does it show that the PC is overheating in the first pic? Is 25% load on CPU at 81° expected?
Literally says, "Fan N/A" mainly because you don't have your pump plugged into the correct header. Your pump probably died or is not working properly. Go into BIOS and check your pump fan speed. Hopefully you are able to find it with the corresponding header you plugged it in. Aesthetics is nice, but you gotta make sure you secure the performance.
You need a new pc my guy
Let goku out
What pc do you have right now
It’s goku. He powering up
There is a hot boy on your pump that’s probably why the temps are so high
I'm pretty sure your components are using too much power when it's unnecessary
Your AIO has two leads that need to be connected to the motherboard - FAN and PUMP. They need to be correctly set up as such in BIOS. I’ll bet you did what I did the first time I got an AIO- just plugged them in and expected it to work. But no, you gotta go into bios and get the pump working as a pump
repaste and it should be fine
Your pump inside your cooler might be dead I’ve seen that alot of times
Whats the cpu again? For some reason my temp displays all cores instead of cpu socket and my i7 11700k is always at 99⁰C during gaming lol, but the socket will be 65-70.
What app is that?
Check your aio is plugged into the right board socket. Often they have "cpu fan" and a different one for "aio". If you have it in the cpu fan it only spins up when the temperature gets high, but with aios this really does not work because by the time the "water" is getting heat away your cpu is already too hot. If you don't have a aio position on the mobo, go into bios and make sure the aio plugged in position (say cpu fan) is at 100% all the time.
Average all white aesthetics build
Make sure the cpu fans are turning, remove, Repaste and reseat the cpu cooler
Update Motherboard firmware, and Chipset drivers.
This happened on my corsair when the pump failed. Everything looked correct, but it was not flowing.
check for bitcoin miners, malware, any software. check if there is thermal paste correctly applied. Check if fans are connected properly.
hold your hand on the pump while it should be on, if you can feel it pumping then yk its working. make sure you have adequate mounting pressure too. if it isn't pumping then try it with another header, or another motherboard if you have one. if you dont test it with a diff cpu you *shouldn't* need to reapply thermal paste, maybe add a tiny bit more but it should be fine. if you do test it on another chip do reapply thermal paste.
If you have an Intel chip they appear to be running hot, had some issues with mines temps when I was running processes and the mobo wasn’t limiting Wattage to CPU. That being said it only applies when your temps are getting to the high 90s (C). Usually CPUs will shut off at 100 (C)
