Well i got my pc made for me. I didnt have the time or really the experience to build it myself. Anyway so for the past few months i have been noticing the high temps on my cpu.

I am getting temps on idle ranging from 35-40'C and when in games Crysic warhead, F1 2010 or just any other game to be honest im getting 65+. Now to me thats high. My mate has near on the same rig but with a 980x at 4ghz+ and his temps are from 10-20 in idle and 30 in game.

I know computers are different depending on setup but i should not be getting those temps.

So any advice would be great. I just drained my system and put new liquids in still the same. There are no bubbles in the system. But i think its the way they have installed the setup itself. heres my youtube profile videos are on there to look at any advice would be great

Should i take pics of temps and cpuz aswell? And anyway to bypass the 500 k upload quota?
 
The temps are not brill for the size of your rad, but the temps are not as bad as you made out.

Could be crap/or too slow fans (set to run too slow)

air in the system

pump not strong enough or not pumping at full speed
 
The temps are lower than they have been.

Anything i can do. Add fans to the underside of the radiator. Anything which could help im up for trying.

And thanks for helping out once again

Well i have three stock corsair fans which i may have to change but i tried changing their speed in bios They are set to 900-1000rpm, changed it to turbo mode but nothing happened.

There is no air in the system that i can tell. And im not sure how to see if pump is running at full speed or how to increase it.

Should of learnt more before i got this rig. :/
 
Been looking round my case and just noticed that there is a fold in one of the pipes. Where the fan is at the floor of the case near the psu. The pump is right under the fan and so i was following the pipes and noticed that there is quite a fold in the pipe it would appear it must of been pressed against the fan and so its caused it to bend. But when i checked the pipe wasnt againt the fan but the bend is clearly visible. So this may been a problem causing water to slow down.

Will look in bios in the morning right now need to get some kip. Thanks for the help guys.
 
Right well spent all day working on it. Spent most of the time in bios changing fan speeds but it would appear i was on max speeds any other settings the rpms drop.

Not sure how to increase pump speed not sure you can. Cant find anything online about this.

And air isnt in the system.

:/
 
Well if your hose has a bent somewhere in the loop this may be causing your problems, since it cuts down on the overall flow in your loop.

Tried to get it straight just wont have it. The way the hose goes from the reservoir down to the pump it bends and then goes to the pump and so dont know how i can fix it without moving the pump :/
