i7 3770k Corsair H110 Temp

brazilianloser · Apr 18, 2013

To explain my setup firstly. I have just build a pc. Corsair 650D case, with an Gigabyte board, Evga 660Ti, 8gb of ram, one ssd and one 1t Hd. The cpu is a i3770k being cooled by an Corsair H110. I have tried to do a pull and push but due to the lack of space i have two fans on top of the rad pulling while only one on the bottom as push due to lack of space mounted to the top of the case. The back 120mm fan is pointed inwards to blow fresh air from outside directly on the radiator as well. Now to the question. I have after a week of letting the pc burn in at idle speeds, i have used the build in gigabyte program EasyTune to oc the cpu to a 4.1Ghz and while with RealTemp up I run the IntelBurnTest a couple of times. Well firstly idle it sits at about 30C. But while the burn test was running one of the cores reached 81C. That seems awfully hot to me. Anyone got any opinions or different tests I can run to make sure I am not running the system too hot.

Well.. hot to you and hot to the cpu luckily are not the same. Ivy Bridge cpu will run hot but you should be able to manually tune your OC for better performance and temps.
Edit: you should get closer to 4.45GHZ - trick is to get the OC stable at the lowest possible voltage.

80c is perfectly fine, though I wonder how much vcore the Easytune is pumping out to your CPU. These kind of programs are notorious for giving too much vcore when its not necessary. I suggest you read a few guides and OC from the BIOS, try 1.3v with the multiplier @ 45.

During max load its showing 4190MHz, BLCK 102.15MHz, 1.284V.

While 80c may be fine for 4.5 Ghz, it isn't for 4.1 with an H110i. I suggest you reseat the cooler onto the cpu. I would also overclock through bios instead of easytune. Do a little reading, and you'll realize that it is not as scary as it looks.

I have done it before with Asus boards that I had on the past. But its been a while. Will look to make sure I know how to go about on this Gigabyte board and give it a go.

If it helps at full load on default settings it is peaking at 62c

And btw its not an H110i but the H110
