When I initially assembled this system it typically reached about 75 on the CPU. After a break from heavy gaming it now occasionally exceeds 90 with throttling while the GPU stays near 75. The build includes a Sliger SM580 Astek 670ls with an AIO, 240mm fans, and other components. I’m curious about its identity and what it might be. I intend to disassemble it thoroughly. My primary worries are whether the AIO or the thermal paste is faulty. How can I separate these problems? Also, I purchased the Zotac at $1400 during a card shortage—it wasn’t my first pick and the fans are quite noisy. I’m thinking about replacing it but I’m unsure which brands offer quieter options.
