cpu temp need help problem solving

OCD Tweaker · Sep 12, 2015

i have an h110i gt water cooler on a i7 4790k and at idle my temp is 27c but under load it goes to 52c! i dont t hink that normal i have put more thermal past on the cpu and made sure the pump is working

Dude your temps are fine. You might have put too much thermal paste on. But as long as you don't see temps over 70 C I would not worry.

i just dont remember them being that high.. but it was only at a 25% load when i was using msi afterburner

52c under load is pretty good. The main thing about water coolers, especially AIO watercoolers, is that you're not going to see a massive decrease in temps over your standard air cooler. As an example, my i5 2500k at stock settings was around 26 idle and 55 load with a hyper 212. When I added my H100i I was around 26 idle and 56 load.

Where they really shine is when you start to OC. my i5 2500k at 4.2 ghz was around 70 under load with they Hyper 212, but with the H100i and overclocked it would barely hit 60 during a stress test.

You're not going to see a huge improvement using a AIO watercooler on stock settings (although the better airflow in your case makes everything better), but when you start to OC you'll also start to see better temps.
