Overheating at 3950x resolution
Overheating at 3950x resolution
Hey everyone, I just got a 3950x and it seems like the temps stay high no matter what I do. The idle range is around 60 to 70 degrees with only Ryzen Master installed. I've adjusted the voltage but it doesn't seem to help. When I run Cinebench R20, it hits 95 degrees and throttles to 1.8GHz, giving a CPU score of 4700. I upgraded from a 1700x before this spec and never had problems until this one. After an update, with no changes made, my idle temps dropped below 40 degrees and peaked at 65 in Cinebench R20, scoring 7300 at 4.1GHz. Still no clear solution, any thoughts? Thanks!
You're asking about the cooling method for your device. Since you didn't specify, I'll assume you're considering options like heatsinks or fans. It seems you're curious whether it's a modern AIO or an older model. Let me know if you'd like more details!
It might be worth confirming the connection quality with the chip. If it's a newer model, ensure the plastic was fully removed from the block.
I can't directly check the status of your pump within iCUE. Please consult the iCUE documentation or contact support for verification.
Sure, I've reinitialized the CMOS and attempted to reduce the voltage. It seems the radiator is heating up and the tubes are getting warm too.
