MAELSTROM 120K for FX 8350 too hot temp

nightelfn · Feb 25, 2018

I have this one liquid cooler for 3 months and at 100% load, the temps hit 80 C (degrees).
I think replace this cooler and buy Corasir hydro h115i so what will advice me?

Screenshot of the stress test. Processor is not overclocked. I had 3x120mm fans front intake, 1x140 on a back and the CPU cooler on top.

Use AMD Overdrive to check your temps, its the only "accurate" way to monitor FX series temperatures.
Youll be looking at the thermal margin under load, post a screenshot of that under a stress test.

The temp`s is the same as AIDA64, room temp is near 23-24 C . This liquid cooler is the worst i have it. Don't BUY IT. When is idle is 37-40 C , when the cpu is load at 100% hit 80 C about 3-4 min.

The Maelstrom 120K is NOT adequate for an 8350. You need at least an H80i equivalent to properly cool an 8350.

I alredy ordered Fractal Design Celsius s24, i think is great for FX 8350.

Yes, that will absolutely be great. And you can then use the s24 on your next CPU upgrade as well (with a new bracket of course).
