story time!
did a computer overhaul, got a new CPU, motherboard, and GPU all at once and spent a day installing. loads of fun (sortof). out of the box, plugging it all in, and going with my OS loaded on my harddrive it all worked. until i noticed some problems and after a pc reset was prompted to a heat warning and had to let it cool down in a power down state before resuming my os. with some digging, it turns out my new cpu was running at a bit of an overclock of 4308MHz so a 1% load is capping it at a nice 95-100 degrees celsius and it's only not going over because NOW it will throttle due to its TJ max being at 100 (when each core hits 100 it instantly cools down because it throttle down and i dont have a crud cooler).
ive checked to see if it was bad paste application or paste. nope on both parts + each core is within 5 degrees of each other at any 1 time. its also not faulty sensors as it feels hot after i power down and feel around the area and done a realtemp sensor test + over periods of time im running into cpu related program fault problems. ive looked it up some fixes. anything to change BIOS settings have no effect of ANY kind, the second windows (10) loads up it maxes out the power and climbs to a nice 90+. ive also tried manually installing all new motherboard and cpu related drivers and no dice.
the only fixes from people with similar problems (that i haven't tried) are either:
- reinstall windows (according to someone with almost the same cpu and this problem on the intel forums)
- returning the cpu AND motherboard (according to these (toms hardware) forums, but different hardware)
in all fairness, might return them both anyway as there's possible symptoms im having other problems wiht the motherboard, and reinstall windows when i get them back if its still doing it. just wanted to know if anyway has seen this before and ha some golden fix im absolutely missing?
hardware in question. I7 6700k CPU, Asus Z170-P D3 Socket ATX Motherboard.
UPDATE:
downloaded coretemp on behalf of tom's hardware admin recommendation on another 6700k problem. same readings on temp per core compared to realtemp. but. its maxing out at 4000MHz and throttling down to 3000 when the temp hits 100. and voltage is between 1v and 1.2v... overall cpu power consumption is 20w or over. dunno if nay of this info is helpful.
cooling is arctic freezer 13. and im not in a hot climate either.
