Hi all

My 6850k with H100i GTX has idle temps of 50-60 but under load are around 70-75. Any ideas as to why?

A side note: the light on the H100i GTX is flickering.

I think your cooler is faulty or not mounted well.
At idle, I expect to see temperatures of 10-15c. over ambient from most any cooler.

The load numbers are ok.

I am using a modded Vibox Predator case (Fan shroud on top with the H100i in) Ambient temp is around 15c and yes it is overclocked (4.3GHz)
