Hi Everyone,
I installed corsair H80i on my i7-4770k . I don't do any overclocking. Idle temperature is around 30 °C . But when I run prime95, the temperature climbs to 100 °C within 10 minutes. Is it normal? In the Corsair Link software, H80i Temperature is only 32 °C when the CPU temperature is at 100 °C. Any Idea what could be the reason for this high temperature? I installed the H80i with the stock thermal paste. Also, I could install only one fan for the H80i since the CPU is too close to the fan vent.
With Intel's stock cooling , idle temperature was around 35-39 °C and it used to touch 100 °C within one minute of running Prime95.
Thanks,
Jijo
