I decided to come over to this forum cause many of my problems have been solved here before. I usually have a pretty good knowledge with computers (at least when it comes to AMD) but i have learned that i don't know everything and when i need something answered i come here.
So with that out of the way lets get to my problem.
I seem to be having a problem with keeping my temps low when i run a full stress test on my rig.
My components are as follow:
Case: Cooler-Master Storm Scout 2 (advanced) all fans are CM Sickleflow 120mm red (except for top slots which are empty)
CPU: AMD FX-8350 (running stock due to the temperature factor)
MOTHERBOARD: Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2
GPU: 2 ASUS GTX 660 (non-TI) running sli at slight overclock (they keep cool no matter what i throw at them)
CPU COOLER: CM Hyper 212 EVO (push-pull with stock fan and sickleflow 120 red)
POWER SUPPLY: Cooler Master V850 fully modular psu
I have used good cable management and run all the fans of mobo controller. So here's the deal:
When i run prime95 (small fft's) and furmark (standard burn in test) at the same time my temperatures will go through the roof. Now when i run prime by its self there are no problems (cpu stays about 54 or 55C) and when i run furmark (rather it be with prime or not) my gpu's doesnt see over 68C.
Now the program i use to measure my temperatures (since amd is so awesome at making accurate temp readouts) is Thermal Radar 1.1.29 and from what i have researched you cannot let the cpu temp get over 62C.
The problem is my cooling should be OVERKILL for this. Now i already know that running two gpu's is gonna bring up my temps but it shouldn't be making it go up that high.
So the question is: What can i do to make sure my CPU doesn't overheat when i run a stress test like that?
