Hi guys
So I've just built this rig;
i7 7700k
GTX 1080Ti
16GB RAM
Asus z270-H MOBO
H100i v2 watercooling
So far the only game I have played has been Assassin's Creed Origins. Visually everything is running very smoothly, however I'm noticing some data that is concerning me a little bit. I've been using the Corsair Link software, as well as Intel Power Gadget 3.5 to gather this data.
Basically, when I'm at idle everything seems ok. CPU utility hovers at around 3% and the temperature hovers at around 35 degrees Celsius. Then I hop into AS: Origins, playing at 2K resolution on the ultra preset. The CPU utility then is basically maxed out, sitting at 95-100%. The CPU is also running hot (obviously) at around 80 degrees. meanwhile the gtx is keeping calm at 65 degrees.
Is there something wrong here? I'm no expert but I feel like my CPU should be running cooler on water. Could the high utility % be a side effect of the CPU not being cooled properly? I've checked on corsair link and it says that the pump is working at around 2000rpm but the air coming out the radiator doesn't seem too warm to me. Does anyone have any suggestions?
The CPU also tends to have a big temperature spike every now and then.
This rig was build by myself a few days ago, it hasnt been overclocked but I believe the intel turbo boost has been enabled.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
