Good morning everyone,

So I recently got this setup but temps in idle jumps from 30c to 50c and 60c quick and goes back down, when under load can even go as high as 104c peak but goes down quick to the 80s, I have removed my h100v2 couple of time already to check if it wasn't sitting right or thermal paste wasn't covering the cpu but everything looks find in that part. I notice that even in the bios is high at its 50c, my build is listed below. Please if you have any advise that can help me with this problem I will take it, thanks in advance. Apologize with my gramma isn't that good.

Update: Voltage in cpu is in auto, took off the boots mode and the peak is gone now but still with high temps like idle 40c to 50c and underload 60c to 80c sometimes peaks to 90c.

I am so sorry for the late response. But what it seems to me that if you are overclocking you could be having too much voltage (More voltage = More heat). Try manually overclocking or use XMP overclocking. You can use manual mode to test...

One thing i would check is make sure in the bios what RPMs the CPU fan is running at. I would then increase the fan speeds at different loads and have it running at least more than 400RPMs

Well both my fans are running at 1400 rpm pump at 3000 rpm, I disable turbo boots and it got a little better at least now is at 40c to 50c in idle but 70c to 80c under load sometimes 90c, so still hot but not as before

- Make sure no cables are blocking air flow to the CPU
- Clean out any dust.
- Maybe add another 120MM fan to the case (depending on how many fans are already installed)
- Make sure you don't have too much or little CPU compound

Sorry for the delay replay was out of the country, well I have the corsair 570x with all brand new rgb sp 120 running at full speed 1400 rpm my pump also running at full speed, now that I disable the turbo boost and set the clock to the original clock the temps r going 40 idle an 70s under load, no cables or dust present as most pieces are new.

The only thing I can think about is that I may need a bigger cooler 360 radiator, because my current one (h100v2) may not be able to cool this cpu well?

Try manually overclocking or use XMP overclocking. You can use manual mode to test the stability and if successful. Switch to adaptive mode for everyday use instead of slapping the CPU in the face with the same voltage causing the life span to decrease.
