my 7700k gets to 90c on a aio.

chaseparker0123 · Aug 2, 2017

I have a 7700k and have been fine on temps until I switched my motherboard recently. When I did I noticed that when I stress tested on prime 95 and Aida 64 it was getting to 90c. I realized this and thought maybe it's the cooler, so I tested it with a friend Kraken x52 and same result. I then tested it with the old board and saw the temps do the same thing. So I took out the 7700k put in a 7600k and saw on the new board with my cooler it was only getting to 40c on load. I don't know whats going on but I don't think it's normal. I have reseated and re applied the thermal paste many times.
At this point, i don't know what to. just a little FYI I did chip one of those squares by the CPU socket i don't know if that power delivery or the sensor but it was the same on the other board so.

side note, I was stress testing it and the CPU would go to 90c after 4 min then a min later back down to 70c and stay around 72-75 so is the sensor on my board broken or is the CPU sensor

UPDATE i was stress testing and saw that it would shoot up to 79c then back down to 60 c why is that.

now wonder , intel has officially announced that the 115x socket is the little sister and only experimental to the bigger actuall 2011-3 and 2066 sockets .

? This is not helpful...

I do not have an answer, but I am watching this thread as I am interested in seeing what the experts will say.

Those temps sound very dangerous to me.

well intel has told the users that 7700K will overheat if you don't cut the voltage and don't disable the OC . i read that in the news itself. intel has officially asked users not to OC 7700K

jimmyEatWord · Aug 2, 2017

what cooler are you using ?

There we go, this is helpful

what motherboard did you switch to?
when everything in the bios is set to default, what stock CPU voltage is being applied?

the voltage being applied to the CPU when I reset CMOS was 1.3.

That's too high, my non-K 7700 was hitting that while reaching 85C with a Hyper 212, I undervolted it to 1.22v and it's good now with 62C under load, should be able to go to 1.25v.

Stop what you're doing that's making the CPU reach 90C until you figure it out, that's very unsafe for the CPU's health.

Now also the common quesiton is, is the cooler mounted properly?

Can anyone actually provide a link of a statement directly from Microsoft saying don't OC the 7700k. My guess is it doesn't exist.

Jester Maroc · Aug 2, 2017

sizzling :

You can google it, it is true. I also had to double check to make sure it is true.

i will try that real quick

i tried it, i set the cpu to 1.24 volts and after 3 min of testinmg it blue screened.
whea uncorrectable error.

i lowerd the voltage to 1.24 and its still getting to 82c is that just the chip or

sizzling · Aug 2, 2017

Jester Maroc :

That's not telling people not to OC, only that its not recommended as it voids the warranty. This is nothing new and what they have always said about their unlocked cpu's to avoid excessive warranty claims or in other words don't blame us if you fry your chip. Seems more about creating a headline to get views.

Not saying the 7700k doesn't get hot but Intel are not telling people not to OC

jimmyEatWord · Aug 2, 2017

usually OC motherboards are set to automatically adjust the voltage . if you disable this feature it should get your temps under control .

MrN1ce9uy · Aug 2, 2017

I guess different pieces of silicon operate at different temps, because I've never seen my 7700K reach 90C and I've run Prime95 and AIDA64 for 30mins with a Cryorig H7.

where would that be located

in the BIOS settings
