The temperatures are coming up around 75c, and it's advised not to push beyond or approach the 95c mark. Your H115i should suffice for the Ryzen processor; what case model are you using? You might gain more performance with extra intake and exhaust fans. Adding a fan to force air onto the VRM heat sink could help when using an AIO closed loop. What motherboard are you running?
Temperatures near the CPU die may exceed normal levels based on your Core Voltage settings.
With a H115i running under full load and a vcore of 1.4V, temperatures can reach 75°C or higher.
Lowering the vcore to 1.250V and checking boot behavior at stock frequency may resolve the issue.
Increasing the vcore gradually in small steps (0.01V) helps determine the optimal setting.
Each step affects heat generation exponentially; maintaining a stable, low vcore is essential.
Your 2700x with H110i under full load stays around 70°C at 1.375V and 4.2GHz OC.
Adjust based on your case airflow and surrounding temperatures for best results.
Count Mike usually says there's no need to overclock a 2700x the 10% doesn't make a significant impact & there's nowhere more to go with it and nothing significant to be gained from it. If your vCore is too high, yes that could also cause higher than normal temps guess the h-series aren't absolute overkill cooling in any conditions but, sorting out the temps will stop any throttling you may be experiencing.
I've checked more closely and it seems speccy works well for temperatures, while Ryzen Master shows readings up to about 60°C and a maximum of 65°C. I adjusted both fans in iCue to "extreme" as well; they were set to "quiet" before. When idle, the temps are around 32-37°C, which isn't extremely high.
Idle should be roughly 10 degrees higher than the ambient temperature, which appears acceptable considering likely ongoing background processes. Perhaps the issue stems from false readings, suggesting no action is necessary and everything remains stable.
