Temp2 is the sensor by the outflow of the Noctua through the back.īasically I can't get this thing OC'd beyond 4.8GHz without killing the heat threshold on the CPU.Īnd my GPU VRAM Averages 84-95C while gaming, and I can't OC it while mining or it goes well above 100C. These are my case temps while mining: Note they go a bit higher too - often Temp 1,3 and 4 are 30-32C and Temp 2 is 39-42C (generally doesn't go higher). Temps with Intel's ETU are 'ok' but as you can see, it's only 4.8GHz: When I'm mining with XMrig (just CPU), my temps are terrible: Extra Case Fans: 3x Corsair LL120RGB (top), 2x Thermaltake 120mm Fans (bottom), Corsair Commander to control them.CPU: i9-11900k (Arctic Silver pea dot method).Pick, Assemble and Install: Video GuideĪ few weeks ago, I got what I considered to be my 'dream system':.No intentionally harmful, misleading or joke advice.
