reapply thermal paste
re-seat cooler
check the fans


Maybe turn up the pump or it died.

Check your Heatsink fan.

Get your dog to sniff it

Thermal paste or could be faulty mobo

Corsair link shows fan and pump working
Reapplied thermal paste nothing changed

Idle temps were down to 28-29 but still hitting max under load almost immediately

I updated my bios and then my temps went back up to the 60s on idle

Idk

Well, there's a lot of stuff you haven't told us>

What case, what fans, what arrangement for the h100v1?
What outside temps? When was the last time you cleaned the dust out of the radiator?
What CPU voltage? What are the vid card temps?

Corsair vengeance c70
Regular fans
Mounted at the top
Hot its summer lol
Dont even know how to do that
1.3-1.4 at stock
Normal 40ish

I would assume you have a dust problem then.

You need to clean the dust off all the fan blades. You need blow the dust out of the vid card. You need to unbolt the radiator and blow all the dust out of it's "fins".

/e Then just generally blow all the dust out of the computer itself. You can use cans of compressed air, or an oil-less air compressor.



/e Here's a pic of a dirty radiator.








Radiators are sort of like air conditioners. When they get plugged up with dust, they don't cool anymore. Air conditioners have a dust filter, radiators don't. Radiotors need to move much more air, because the things they cool are wicked hot. If rads had a dust filter, they wouldn't cool enough to do the job.
