I am very new to the Pc world and have no idea if this is supposed to happen but my CPU averages around 50-70 degrees on idle , and the highest I have seen the temperature go before crashing is 116 degrees. right now I have taken the side panel off my pc and i out a fan next to it to hopefully cool it down and it sits at 96 while I have one tab of YouTube open. I really have no idea what to do these are my specs if it helps :
GeForce rtx 3060
16gb RAM with 2400Mhz
Thermal paste good?
yeah reapplied it the other day
im sat idle right now with only this tab open and its between 75-93
I am not very experienced either, but that seems hot even for no cooling at all. Mean one browser would be like 6% load max?
i have a cooler all together i have 6 fan 4 of them came with the case and 2 of them are the cpu cooling
do you have the option to test a different cpu on it?
not at the moment
What cpu cooler make/model, what idle speed is cpu, how many/what apps are set for start up in task manager, what windows power plan, is bios set up on auto or fixed speed, motherboard make/model & not using its software apps for tuning?
What is your cooler? You may try to reinstall your cpu cooler, fresh paste, and undervolt it.
Sounds like pump has failed, cooler not mounted properly or tight enough. I would say pump has gone or not plugged in to header.
Can you send a picture of your cooler with the fans attached?
