I just replaced my noisy 500w cooler master PSU with the evga 650w gold series PSU. I have a water cooled CPU that never went above 50c on max load. I booted up my computer for the first time just now with the new PSU and watched my CPU temps quickly rise above 70c before I abandoned ship and powered down.
Both units are the exact same structure so the internal cooling hasn't changed at all. My only guess is I might have bumped my heat sink and will need to reseat it but this particular brand is a pita. I'd like to avoid that, especially since I was very careful not to bump in and have no memory of doing so.
Any thoughts?
