floral sundial
I was having issues with overheating on my CPU, so I took the radiator apart and dusted everything out and my idle temps are better than before. The problem is that it still idles at 50-55 C (45W power draw), and I don't know if that's normal with liquid cooling (corsair h115). I've made a very high tech realistic recreation of my case's airflow if that helps at all
Ambient temperature in my room is about 23 C (74 F)

Anything abnormal with your pump rpm, or abnormal sounds?

No abnormal sounds, pump RPM is 2820 (which is normal)

What thermal compound do you use?

Whens the last time you have re done the paste on there?

Some time around the end of december
Because I upgraded from a 3800x to a 5800x3D at that time

Hmm.... I did also run a h110 and had higher temps, re pasting the cpu seemed to do the trick for me as I believe I had poor thermal compound, as the application was good.
I use thermal grizzly kyonaut and it works wonders

I might look into better thermal paste then

Does it thermal throttle? Does it get loud?

Not that I've noticed, but since dusting it out and re arranging my fans a bit my temps are getting to around 85 C under load, no thermal throttling

Thats normal idle temps
Also your aio orientation could be better

Ah so flipping it would be better?

if its a 360, tubes down is basically impossible

pretty sure its a 280

Rn I'm sitting around 63 degrees while watching youtube and playing escape from tarkov

so minimal front airflow hmm could be a potential reason why the temps are a bit high
