Hey all
I've had my most recent build for around 14 Months now and have had very little problems with it. However yesterday I noticed that when idle my CPU temp was fluctuating between 50-60C and when i opened a game(WoW) my CPU temp would slowly rise to 100+ over the course of around 5 mins. I also noticed today whilst doing another test to confirm this, that my GPU temp seemed to also skyrocket towards 90C.
Yesterday I did see that when i brought my cpu under around 15% load with the game open that only one of the tubes in my H100i was becoming hot and the other was staying cool. After scouring forums I saw that a number of people put this down to either a pump failure or blockage in the loop somewhere.
I was all prepared to replace my H100i but I don't see how that would account for my GPU temp rising so high.
System Specs:
NZXT Phantom Full Tower (Pull from sides, Push up through H100i radiator)
Asus P8Z77-V pro Mobo
i7 3770k at stock(3.5) Voltages set to auto and rarely go over 1.2v
EVGA GTX680 (Never had any temp problems before, not that WoW would)
4 NZXT case fans on pull
H100i with rad+dual 120mm fans at top of case on push
Even when my cpu reaches 100C under such low load, the air from the radiator is very cool which makes me think that there is no circulation around the cooling loop. I thought that a simple replacement would help, but then I noticed the increased GPU temp also. GPU voltage is 0.987V
Any help would be massively appreciated!
