cpu idleing at *C35 with hyper 12 evo

gokitty199 · Apr 1, 2013

hello i just changed from a stock cooler to the hyper 12 evo and it idles at around 35-37 *C and goes up to 50*C when stress testing with prime 95. those are the same temps that i had with my old stock cooler, shouldnt they be lower

Hi

Good temps but it depends on case fans and airflow in your case...

EASY to check if bad airflow... REMOVE side of case and check temps again.... lower temps mean bad airflow ...more fans needed etc...

All the best Brett

Consider Brett's advice.

Hyper 212 evo is nice cooler and temps should be lower than on your stock cooler. Maybe you did not installed it properly. It is possible that you have put too much thermal paste. It is possible that that is running on 50% during load since 50* is not high temp so he does not need full speed.

thanks it went down like 1*C when i took the side of my case off lol. im just worried that if i overclock it slightly that it will get to hot when under load

and i belive i put to much thermal on the first time which was like two weeks i was playing with it like that, i re applied the thermal and got a nice thin layer and it went down like 2 *C. i just didnt know if these temps were high with this cooler

what kind of thermal compound did you use?

have you adjusted the fan speed?
If you set it to 100% all the time, it will be very audible, but those temps should be lower. It will run on an "auto" setting by default and the PC will keep it cool enough with the least amount of fan speed, keeping it quiet longer.

yes my fan speed is at 100% and im using arctic silver 5 thermal paste.

wow taking the side of the case off lowered it 34 c or 92.3 f.... Hmmmmmmmmm....

and i have 5 decent size fans in my case, the one at the cpu i have a cpu fan pointing to the back of my case and i have a fan in the back of my case about two inches from the cpu fan blowing the air out of the case

Your temps are fine I do not really know what you are worried about.

because i want to overclock so my games will play a bit better like mx simulator and im just not sure how much of a tempature rise it would be if i increased it by 1.7 ghz
