So I built my pc a few months a go now and it has worked brilliantly.
But after installing 5 new Akasa Apache fans and some braided cables in my computer I decided to run a Prime 95 test along with Realtemp to see the temps I would get.
Just to state:
I7 4770K 3.5Ghz (Not OC)
Z87-plus
Evga gtx 770
Corsair H60
Those are the main parts I guess you should know.
(Full list of components on my bio)
Anyway, after doing an hour of of Cpu testing I get these temps,
Minimum temp 29-28-30-33 deg c
Maximum temp 89-86-81-79 deg c
I had read that someone with a similar build to me but with the stock Intel cpu cooler and with 3 fans. He had a maximum temp of 90 on his testing
Of course I don't know if these are accurate from the other guy but if I have 5 fans and water cooling and I am getting 89 on my maximum temps. Why is this? Surely my water cooling would have a bigger improvement over the stock Intel cooler. That is why I am worried something is wrong.
I'm sure im just being silly but I worry something is wrong with my pc somewhere and I would rather find the problem now rather than later when it may be too late.
If anyone could give me an explanation that would be great.
(Sorry for dragging it on but I find it hard to get down what I want to say sometimes)
Many thanks,
Mango.
