JayTuut Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 It can drop to 60 and not make much noise in my case. Then it can be 80 and make a fair bit of noise and then its now staying tonight around 90-100C. I even bought a new fan specifically for it so I'm really worried, its not even overclocked Its an i7-7700k kaby lake. Dunno why its so fucking high O_o. What should i do?

AwesomeMcCoolName Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 It could be shit TIM or the cooler could be mounted poorly. Did you apply new thermal paste when you put on the new cooler? Did you remove the clear plastic sticker from the bottom of the cooler before putting it on? Do you get consistent temps when load testing with the same program?

The cooler mounted poorly could be possible though. My brother installed it for me but he couldnt get the fan seperated from the cooling mechanism, so he just screwed it on with his hands Cooler in question (m9i) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then run prime95 or Aida64, what are your temps? You probably need to remount the cooler properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePickleCat Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Congratulations you lost the Silicon Lottery! But yea try remounting your cooler. DONT FORGET to wipe off your CPU and the cooler AND add new thermal paste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb_ Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Probably mounting or paste issue, you should clean it up apply new (higher quality) paste. Maybe you should also check cooler base and CPU heat-spreader (after cleaning) with peace of flat glass - make sure they are both flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyro Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 i thought you said 100 degrees F, how the f*ck can it get so hot?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPUs/GPUs can safely run up to 90ºc~ long term, 100ºc is really easy to reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm worried of running those cause if im getting 100 degrees without doing anything... then... yeah.. ill kill it using those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we did that and reapplied paste and now my computer won't even turn on. And there's lights on the motherboard indicating it can't detect A CPU, looks like the cooler also bent it.

I couldnt get a good picture and its not too bent so kinda hard to see, I just tried putting my old cpu and old motherboard in and thats what im on now. But the fucking ethernet on both motherboards doesnt fit in properly cause of the clip.. it worked on this motherboard before but now i cant get the ethernet in. Fucking hell.

Did you by some chance let the grounding clip in the ethernet port (that would block a lot of the port and prevent the ethernet plug from fitting).

Yes. But its happened on both motherboards and i dont know how to stop it apart from bending it back and even then that doesnt seem to work.

If it's what I think it is, then you can just break off the grounding clip, it's not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, i'd have to take the whole motherboard out and everything off to get rid of that grounding clip :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it has a red light, and my brother tried to bend the clip away and he got a red light and a flashing green one at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay I took another picture Basically: The red circle is the red light that beeps every 10 seconds or so The green circle is the green light that is now staying on The blue circle is the clip from the motherboard that my brother has bent out of the port and moved it out of the case to try to fix it (didn't though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayTuut Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 @AwesomeMcCoolName replaced the ethernet but I think the problem was that since I switched motherboards the drivers didnt work, so I went to realtek and got the family controller GBE thing and installed it and it fixed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
