Hello everyone, I'm looking for assistance after a few months of troubleshooting. I searched online and contacted CORSAIR support, but no solution was found. My issue: CPU temperature is consistently high at 50-55°C (at 5GHz) and 44°C (at 3.5GHz), often reaching 70°C for short periods. My setup includes a CORSAIR 5000T Z790 ACE MSI with BIOS updated recently, an Intel 19-13900KF CPU Block XC7 RGB PRO 2x XR5 RAD 360 XD7 pump/reservoir combo, and a front intake/exhaust loop. Initially, I had only the CPU watercooled; now the GPU is in the loop without any changes to CPU temps. The GPU stays around 32-35°C, but when I set all fans and pumps to 100%, GPU temps drop, though CPU temps remain unchanged. I checked the contact and everything seems fine, so I replaced the CPU block via RMA once without improvement. How can I lower these temperatures? Is there enough contact information for the CPU, or is the waterblock the issue? This problem seems to come from the CPU itself. Please share your curve temps or test results using HWiNFO, XTU, or ICUE.
