Just upgraded from i7 9th gen + Asrock b360m ib-r1 to ryzen 7 5800x + mag b550m mortar max wifi. Everything works great except the cpu is now overheating. I’ve reapplied thermal paste and done some stuff in the bios, but the system shuts down within a few minutes. PLZ HLP

what do you consider over heating?

#

also what cooler

#

a picture of the inside of your case with a flash would be nice and without the glass side cover in the way

heavy skiff
#

When a warning pops up saying the cpu is overheating

#

Cooler is kraken 120

#

Here’s a better picture

#

does your aio running properly? i mean the pump

limpid valley
#

120mm rad on a 5700x would probably run hot

#

that isn't much better then a stock amd cooler

stray fern
#

i guess so.. but it shouldn't over heat while idling tho

#

it maybe run warm but not over heat

#

different case if it over heat while stress testing

limpid valley
#

I wouldn't think so, but if it's at idle either it's out of water or mounted wrong or the paste is garbage

#

I would give the aio a shake test aka unbolt the rad and hold it up and shake it and see if you hear anything, if you do not head anything or the sloshing is loud and violent, gonna have to conclude the rad is dry and it seeped water

#

i'm thinking more of dead pump, not enough/uneven mounted pressure, or if it new aio maybe forgot to remove the plastic sticker on aio plate

limpid valley
#

there is that also, but without hands on all we can do it ask for pictures and make suggestions

stray fern
#

yep

limpid valley
#

I'd hate to ask him to remove the pump and see the plastic stuck to the plate or the cpu and curled up from the heat

heavy skiff
#

cause it performs perfectly for my 9700k

#

though it IS a 120 AIO on a 5800X.
a $25 thermalright would cool better.

#

sounds like he's re-using it from the intel build though, so kinda unlikely the protective plastic is still on the pump block.

limpid valley
#

I agree, my first concern was the 120mm aio it's not much better then a stock aio r5 cooler

heavy skiff
#

What would you suggest I get

merry bison
#

An AIO will fail in one way or another eventually anyway.
I just presume that this is this one's last breath.

heavy skiff
#

Well I put the old stuff back in because I’m not gonna be able to get a better aio for a few weeks at least

#

And the one I have still works fine

maiden delta
#

"works fine" so the new CPU isn't overheating any more?

your mount is crooked mostlikely

#

that mounting system sucks in general\

#

and you prolly didnt use enough paste when you mounted it

#

if you ened a aio get a thermalright v3 aio for like 45

#

otherwise go air with the prism for 37

heavy skiff
#

How much of a difference is there between the 240 and 360

lavish quiver
#

like

#

3c

#

just more capacity over time to heat up so takes longer to reach equilibrium

heavy skiff
#

So not worth

lavish quiver
#

thats the way i paste

heavy skiff
#

Ok

lavish quiver
#

the line ie because it splits teh chiplets and goes right over the io die

#

the dots are just for spreading coverage

heavy skiff
#

Good to know

lavish quiver
heavy skiff
#

It’s so nice when someone can just give concrete answers

lavish quiver
#

so the chiplet is on the top side

#

since 5800x is a single ccd design

#

iodie is the big one in the middle

#

make sense

heavy skiff
#

With my very limited knowledge of computers, yes

lavish quiver
#

the gooey spot on the right is just a filler spot sincce theirs no chip

#

so if we were to rotate it

#

90 to the right the big die would be to the left in the motherboard

heavy skiff
#

Got it

lavish quiver
#

like that

🙏🙏 “ALL PRAISE THE MAN WITH KNOWLEDGE” 🙏🙏

lavish quiver
#

if i recall derbaur which is thermalgrizzly

#

made a offset mount for am4 that uses that design of hooking mount

#

to shift the aio cooler plate to the right or left for best thermal transfer right in the center of the aio cold plate

lavish quiver
#

but ya if your case can take a 360 aio

#

and you want a quieter system go for it

#

since its only like 4 bucks more

#

if it cant fit then do the 240

#

otherwise go air if you dont want failing parts aside from fans

#

but aios will typically last like 5-7 yrs if left constantly on

#

along the "bottom" edge that has the socket lock lever
this is why the AM4 (and AM5) "offset" mounts move the cooler "down" closer to the PCI slot.

lavish quiver
#

Lol

#

This looks upside down to me 🤣

maiden delta
#

well, vertically oriented in a case the RAM would be to the right of the socket, so along the bottom edge of the CPU package is where the CCD's are located.

#

with the IOD at the "top".

#

though AM5 has the socket lock lever on the same edge as the RAM

#

but the chiplets are still along the "bottom"
