Idle temps de 13900 kWh
Idle temps de 13900 kWh
Interesting development overnight. Returned from work and saw the PC sitting idle between 39-41°C. No adjustments, no activity—just the usual low-usage window. It seems the paste time doesn’t need much tweaking. Also, the game that worked at 60-70°C now runs cooler at 55-60°C. I’m glad the idle temps are steadier, but I’m curious about the cause behind this change.
Time updated... Following the 39-41c setting, it returned to the 50c range and remained there most of the time. My brother replicated the setup but used a different model (13900k) instead of the KS variant. I switched to Arctic MX-6 thermal paste from Thermal Grizzle Kryonaut Extreme right away, which cut my temps by 5-10c. To confirm, I re-applied it a couple times with the same outcome. Now I'm idling between 40-42c. My brother's K runs idle around 29-30c, but I realized he doesn't adjust his fans and shares the same AIO as me, which is set to full speed by default. Louder, but I also got 29-30c at idle when I tried it. I think Thermal Grizzly isn't effective for me. Perhaps I should be pushing harder and reaching higher temps where it performs better. It's possible I picked the incorrect paste version. Hope this assists someone else with similar concerns.
Are you considering doing it again? You've tried it multiple times without any change in outcome.
