Lowering CPU temp
Lowering CPU temp
Check the ASUS Z270 UEFI BIOS settings for options that allow higher CPU overclocking and better thermal management.
others have shared their thoughts on the situation. They mentioned checking the cooler setup and thermal paste application, asking about the CPU voltage for a 4.8GHz processor. They noted that the default voltage is likely to be used at higher speeds and suggested using CPU-Z to monitor core voltage. They also discussed the amount of paste applied and how it should look after removing the cooler.
in my view, those temperatures are too high considering the cooler. I’d look into your cooler’s mounting and the amount of thermal paste applied. Also, what CPU voltage are you using for a 4.8GHz processor?
those temperatures are too high in my view with that cooler. I’d look into your cooler setup and the amount of thermal paste applied. Also, what CPU voltage are you using for 4.8ghz? I’m not sure which one to check since it’s default right now. We’ve replaced the heatsink and paste a few times to try lowering the temperature.
others have mentioned the temperatures are quite high for this setup. I’d look into your cooler’s mounting and the amount of thermal paste applied. Also, what CPU voltage are you using for a 4.8GHz processor? It might not be the default setting. We’ve replaced the heatsink and paste several times to try lowering the temps. At around 4.8GHz it’s probably not the standard voltage. If you’re on auto, it should adjust itself as needed. You can check the core voltage with cpuz—it’s one of the best air coolers available. When you removed the cooler, observe how evenly the paste spread.
others mentioned the temperatures are too high and suggested checking the cooler setup, paste amount, and CPU voltage for 4.8ghz. They noted the default setting might not be ideal at that speed and recommended using CPU-Z to monitor core voltage. One recommended an air cooler like CPU-Z and applied a thin layer of thermal paste after reapplying the heatsink.
