Hi,
Specs:
AMD FX 9590 4.7 Ghz Unlocked (5ghz Turbo)
16GB 1866mhz Corsair Vengeance DDR3
ASUS MATRIX PLATINUM 980 GTX
Corsair Carbide 400R Case
Corsair H110 Water cooler. (2 x 140mm fans)
I just want to make sure I've got the correct amount of thermal paste on my CPU.
Please note, the CPU and Motherboard Temperatures were taken with ASUS AI Suite, not some other third party App, I think they give different readings than the likes of CPUID. The GPU temps were taken from ASUS GPU Tweak software.
I'm running an AMD FX 9590 4.7ghz but with Turbo mode enabled, I'm also using the Corsair H110 cooler with 2x 140mm fans using as exhaust fans at the top of the case, there is also a 2nd 140mm exhaust fan at the back of the case which is set on a low speed but increases with CPU temperature. I have 2x 120mm front intake fans that are constantly on full speed and a 140mm fan on the side panel feeding my ASUS MATRIX PLATINUM 980 GTX which is not overclocked.
When I'm gaming, the GPU at close to 90% usage doesn't get over 57C, but the CPU reaches 59C, I know AMD processors run pretty hot and wondered if this was normal, Since I've had this processor I've applied my own thermal paste and have used the Pea technique, I'm just wondering if these temperatures are normal for a water cooled CPU, or whether I should have another crack at applying thermal paste, I put a less than pea sized amount on the CPU itself and let the pressure from the cooling block spread the paste.
During gaming the Motherboard Temp doesn't breach 26C
At idle the motherboard drops to around 24C and the CPU to around 37.
Here's a table to show it a bit clearer.
IDLE Gaming
CPU 37C 59C
Motherboard 26C 26C
GPU 25C 57C
GPU LOAD 2% 90%
GPU FAN 32% 46%
CPU FANs 43% 79%
What do you guys think about the temperatures? Specifically the CPU but if you have a comment on the overall temps please also let me know.
Thanks in advance.
