H60 Cooler on FX 9590

Hurryheathen · Aug 23, 2016

I am running an H60 Corsair water cooler on my FX-9590. I did a CPU stress test and bench test using CPU-Z. I let it sit for about 20 minutes. My CPU was being used about 80% and hitting around 50C. These seems rather reasonable to me. Should I be looking at getting a better cooler or if these seems to keep it cool do I need to worry?

I would run a different stress test, as if its not at full load its not a viable source of information.
Run P95 for a little while, few hours, and see what your temps are like with AMD Overdrive.

I personally recommend against the H60 for a 220w processor.

I agree with the above. Run Prime95, that really stresses out the CPU and you will see your max temps then.

But doing that technically doesnt matter, as long as its running at reasonable temps when you are doing actual tasks on your computer such as gaming, rendering etc. A synthetic test like Prime95 will put more stress on your CPU then 90% of real tasks that you would actually do on your PC

Agreed. Wouldn't personally go for it with the H60. There's usually good sales on double/triple rad AIOs that'd work better for not to hefty a price. But if this is working and not too loud/hot for you then keep it. It's how you feel about it that matters most.
