Processor overheats when not in use.
Processor overheats when not in use.
Only a few tasks were consuming the processor, all of which were consistently active.
When the AIO relies solely on a 3-4pin fan header, the default fan curve at low usage may not provide enough power to keep the pump functioning. If it lacks a SATA power cable as well, running at 20-30% usage could stop the pump from moving fluid effectively. I couldn't determine this from images since the first-party photos often remove the block's cables and reviewers don’t seem to share enough details.
He mentioned it was half load. I claimed the Idle System Process was the sole operation at around 97% utilization, though it typically displays the CPU usage percentage.
It's a three-pin connector, and I used the fan speed app to increase the pump voltage.
Allows configuring it for pumping or around 80% in UEFI. It’s often not operating at full speed, which can hinder proper flow during light use if it’s a 3-pin type.
