First water cooling venture

[murrayjhart]

Hey guys and girls,

Finally got round to water cooling a build after wanting to do it for a long time. Little confused with my temps though. They might be fine but I'm seeing people on the forums with similar temps using air cooking.

The build...
Intel i5 4670K
Asus Maximus VII Gene
8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro
Corsair 350D
Custom 240mm Watwr Loop
2 x Corsair SP120 for the rad and AF120 intake and exhaust fans.

I have the 4670K overclocked to 4.4Ghz at 1.175V this is very low I think? The temps though seen a little high for such a low Voltage. I'm averaging 65 after full 10 pass on maximum stress Intel burn test. The hottest core was 71. Using OCCT the temps are slightly lower.

Can anyone please let me know if this is average temps.

Thanks in advance

I couldn't advise you on Intel temps (sorry) but how old is your loop as it may still have air in it sometimes it can take a week for all the air to come out

Have you made sure you removed the protective film from the CPU block?

A picture of your loop would also help
