Does the 4790k run hot?
the 4790k is a hot chip to begin with and those smaller AIO coolers aren’t up to the task anyways. I thought it was the h55i at the start also but after taking a functioning stock intel cooler and got 90c+ I quickly ruled that out.
What is a safe temperature for an i7 CPU?
What we’ve found is that the Intel Core i7 CPUs throttle down their speed starting at 100C. So, 100C is the maximum operating temperature of Intel Core i7.
Is stock cooler enough for i7 4790k?
Yup, even on stock speed the i7 4790k will be cooler on aftermarket cooler than on stock fan. The cooler your system is the longer it will survive. But still, on stock speed, an after market fan is not a must, only recommended.
Can you Delid 4790k?
But wanted to know if you guys think it’s worth delidding? Unequivocally, YES.
Is 90 degrees safe for CPU?
While it is a little bit safe, it is already near the danger levels of overheating as going close to 90 degrees Celsius will already cause your CPU to throttle to avoid damaging it. If you maintain lower temperatures and be more conservative, there will be no risk of CPU damages from overheating.
Is 4790K soldered?
So while the 4790K does not go back to solder like the rumors said, the new NGPTIM actually appears to work very well. Overclockers might not be as happy with the lack of solder, but at least there should not be much of a reason to delid your own CPU to replace the stock TIM with a different material.
Is 92 too hot for CPU?
A safe temperature for your processor should be maximum 65 degree Celsius, but it goes up to 92 degree Celsius is that something wrong with cooling system? Around 90 is when thermal throttling happens (which is your laptop down-clocking the CPU to reduce heat) and at least for your laptop it will shut down around 94c.
Is 88 too hot for CPU?
88 degrees yes hot. 78 should be ok. The fans on the GPU only protect the GPU die, meaning only the “CPU” of the GPU is kept cooled by the heatsinks and the fan, but not the vram.
Is 90 degrees Celsius bad for a CPU?
90C is too hot, that CPU shouldn’t exceed 80C under gaming loads. Before replacing the stock cooler you could try cleaning the cooler of dust and reapplying the thermal paste as the thermal paste on it may be dried out since the CPU is a few years old.
Can you Delid 4790K?
When did Intel stop soldering?
Back in 2012, Intel made the controversial choice to ditch solder and go with thermal paste for Ivy Bridge. As expected, stock overclocking suffered as temperatures spiked.
What should be the temperature of my computer processor?
The majority of today’s desktop processors should not exceed temperatures of 45-50°C when idle, or 80°C when under full load.
What is the normal CPU temperature for a laptop?
The temperature of the CPU should be less than 80 degrees Celsius or 176 Fahrenheit. The normal operating temperature of a CPU is between 30 and 50 degrees Celsius depending on the workload. If the temperature gets too high the CPU can become damaged.
What is a dangerous temperature for my CPU?
CPU danger temperature is around 75-85C (check the CPU’s tech specs) GPU danger temperature is around 90-95C. HDD danger temperature is around 60-65C. Threshold temperatures are also pretty standard once again due to the reasons specified under the danger zone temperatures.
What is a safe CPU temp?
VERY generally speaking, safe CPU temp is up to around 85C, GPU is roughly 90C. Any higher than 85C on the CPU and you run the risk of throttling or shutdowns.
