Hi, guys. Just did some testing and found something weird in my loop that needs answers for.
I've got a 4690k, 2 gtx980s, a 360mm rad, a 480mm rad and a D5 pump in the loop.
Both rads are in push pull with the corsair sp120s. So I basically have 7*120mm rad space.
Here's the weird thing, if I only run 2 fans in push pull and turn off all the other fans completely on the rads and run occt large data set, cpu temps only go up 2 to 3 degrees compare to having all the fans at max speed. Try both 4.5g at 1.28v and 4.6g at 1.34v and get similar results which are quite high at 67c and 75c respectively with all fans on 100%. Changing pump speed does nothing temperature wise. It's weird to me as I see a lot of people using 240mm aio coolers with lower temps at similar voltages...
Am I simply overloading the cooling capability of the cpu or is there something wrong with my loop? How do I test if my radiator or cpu block is working properly? Will deliding the cpu help much? Thanks...
