How long have you had the fans on top and on the rear of the case? Also did this just start happening?

70c is not overheating. Your CPU throttles at 105c, and shuts down at 130c. 50c is a warm idle though. What are your ambient temps?

i MISSCLICK!

Fans came with the BX1

Ecky :

Ambient its around 10/12 °c

My advice to try step by step would be first to check and see if the cpu cooler is seated properly and securely. Second would be boot into bios and reset them to default. Also one other thing is have you watched to see if your cpu fan is spinning?

hiyabusared :

loaded optimal on bios
all coolers cleaned and oiled
cpu cooler seated
change paste 2 times testing.

Most modern computer fans have sealed bearings. Do not put oil in them, you risk damaging them.

btw i tried stock i5 cooler and its got same temps

lanceabbott · Jun 26, 2016

Ecky :

just the ones that are not sealed, the 212 its sealed

btw when in windows playing was like 63º i rested from the button and went to bios, there the temp was 40º.. can the sensors be failing ?
i formated the hdd for test and got same temperatures

lanceabbott :

out of curiosity, are you sure about those temps? 10° is kindda cold outside, so inside??
Also, seems something is running in the background, have you checked the task manager?

lanceabbott · Jun 27, 2016

LeKeiser :

was like 8º outside so i think that inside i was 10/12, wasnt using nothing to heat because the test
i check the task manager, was ok. in the screenshot the max use of the cores was 30% :'(

LeKeiser · Jun 27, 2016

Again out of curiosity, which thermal paste? And how did you apply it?

lanceabbott · Jun 27, 2016

LeKeiser :

Its called Delta (im from Argentina) we always used it and never had problems.
I tried several ways (an X, I, a dot, full covered with small amount..) to put the thermal paste, all same results, tried with another one too with same results.

there is the photo of my pc.. the red cooler is pulling out, the black on top its pulling out and 212 its pulling to them, in front and side i have 1 pushing in each side

Hello,
Something that's weird though is that your CPU is running "always" at 3599MHz (min at 1600) when it's at 47ish° but there are no processes in the background. I don't know much how the frequencies of an iX is supposed to vary, but it seems not right there.

i tried to deactivate turbo to keep a constant speed w/o auto ocing and got same results
