Possible problem with CPU? Help!

Twistedwheelbarrow · Jul 19, 2014

Hey guys, I was curious to whether there was something wrong with my processor. I'll post my system specification below. The temperatures below are my idle temperatures at stock. Is there something wrong here?

heck yes. Something's wrong. I'm sure you knew it before you asked.

Thermal paste, fan rotation, heatsink seating, positioning and placement, as well as case ventilation - check and re-check all of those.

I have H60 liquid cooling with stock paste, been meaning to change that. I've re-seated it multiple times and the fans and they're fine. My ventilation was set up for my when I sent my PC in to be checked because the cooler was faulty, so I don't know what could be wrong, honestly.

Haswell chips are either really hot or really cool, depending on how lucky you are? Could it just be that I have a sucky chip?

Twistedwheelbarrow :

No, never that hot. unless Intel failed to put the thermal insulation under the chip casing. Which would be a manufacturer fault.

If it is a purchased PC under warranty, exercise your RMA and return it. Don't negotiate, just return it.
