Really quick, what part should I upgrade?

[intel1502]

Hey, I just want to quickly post this so I can get the opinions of some wiser people

I currently have an XSPC Rasa 750 RS240 Kit (RS240 radiator, Rasa CPU Block, X20 750 Res/Pump) and am looking to upgrade.

My block is HIGHLY oxidized and missing washers, my system is reaching high 60's/70's in temperatures (2500k @5GHz), hence why I wish to replace it with something higher end.

I saw the EK-Supreme HF - Full EN (Nickel) and fell in love with it.

I'm wondering whether the high temperatures on the CPU are due to lack of quality/proper components with the block (buy new block), or not enough heat being drawn away from the radiator (buy new radiator).

If anyone could give me a kick in the right direction, it'd be much appriciated. :lol:

Hi.

I have the same block with a swiftech 360 radiator and my temps never goes above 40ºC on load, my CPU is an AMD 1090T @ 3.8GHz.

That's my experience but keep in mind that pump is also important.

Never above 40 on load? Do you live in the antarctic?! My bloody room is roughly 30 degrees C. Lol

My country is a little cold, temps on idle are around 15ºC - 18ºC and ambient temps around 10ºC.

Rasa block is still one of the better blocks out there. Are you sure it's seated correctly? Do you have air in the rad? If any component needs upgraded, I vote for a better pump. Otherwise, sounds like you have some other things to check into before you buy.

Saint- where from? I guess I've never asked that.

This could be an issue of too much TIM as well, just to add to the list.

Bogota, Columbia my friend. Now you know why my English isn't the best one.

Your English is far better than a large majority of those living here. Don't worry at all on that...
