Hello,
I injured my hand and its gonna be a few months to fully heal so i decided to go ahead and just buy a pre built pc from ibuypower.. i paid $1,750 after tax here are specs.
i7 5820k Intel Cooled with ibuypower Custom CPU water Cooler.
16 gb of DDR4 Ram
228 gb SSD + 500 GB SamSung SSD + 1 TB Western Digital HDD ( I upgraded hard drives since it came with only 120 gb SSD)
MSI Nvidia? 980 GTX 4 GB
X99 SLI Plus MSI Motherboard
Now.. my problem lol or no problem? My CPU idles around 40-41 c, and maybe 37C in a very cool room environment.
Shouldn't it be idling around 25-29 C?
Now.... I noticed when i got the PC the Ram is literally next to the radiator, and so close the fan that cools the radiator is touching the ram... here is the picture.
is this causing the radiator to run hotter and not cool the cpu as well or it doesn't matter whether the ram is that close to the radiator or not.....and doesn't impact CPU temps?
I wan;'t to move the ram to other side of mobo since it has 8 ram slots and i will only use 4 at MOST ever! Ibuypower tells me if i break anything inside it voids warranty WTF? There saying it will take 3 -5 days just to move the ram cause of RMA Que but i live only 30 minutes from them, and they should honestly fix it ASAP if i show up with the pc since i am a paying customer that is willing to drive 40 minutes to the headquarters.......
On Newegg's site the ram is situated on the opposite side of the motherboard.....

Basically my question is the ram being so close and close to radiator affecting my CPU temps and will moving it to opposite side of motherboard even make a difference? Is it worth all the trouble of sending it in to ibuypower for a week?
The ram is sitting at 35-36 c right now at Idle..
