Hello, everyone!

So, this morning, I got bored and decided to look at the temps of my CPU under stress. Now I know that 4770Ks run hot, however, mine has a 360mm rad all to itself, and it's hitting ~95 under load. It's also at ~30-40 idle.

Is there a chance that I haven't bleeded the system properly? If so, how can I bleed it better?

Let me know if any extra info is needed

Thanks!

What about the ambient temp?

I wouldn't actually worry about the idle temps if I were you. The load ones are a bit high, but if you are artificially stressing it I wouldn't bother either. Use the most CPU-intensive software you have to test.

Ambient temp is between 20°C and 22°C, usually, but a bit colder in the mornings.



I'm using a custom loop (Swiftech Apogee XL, MCP-65x pump, AlphaCool NexXxos XT45 360mm rad)
