    Posted: 15 Mar 2022 at 12:24am
So I've had my build for 9 months now. I've been monitoring temps on my CPU with the AIO and noticed I sit at 84 C on my package temps while gaming. I have a friend with a 10900k who games with me and his package temps never go above 74 C. We both have a 240mm AIO. I'm wondering if there's an issue with my AIO or if potentially a new thermal paste application would benefit my temps. Any fellow 10900k users with any experience or advice? Much love and appreciation.

Hi Peon…Your temps are fine, well within safe zone.   I personally like a few degrees lower but a lot depends on the chip.   Not all chips are created equal and falls within the “silicon lottery” theory. Your friends chip could just be a better binned cpu, meaning where it was on the disc before being seperated after manufacture, or his paste is a bit better applied.     Your temps don’t warrant reapplying new paste but if your comfortable doing it then go for it. No guarantees however.

I concur. The CPU won't throttle until 95ºC or higher --also, initially, it will be just capping the boost speed.

Returning to the possible causes of the CPU temps difference:

• room temp
• graphics card

Even a front mounted AIO cooler (typically configured as an intake) will be affected by the interior case temp (e.g. graphics card heat). Additionally, your PC will increase the room temp, as much as +10ºC is not unheard of, recycling and further heating the hotter and hotter air.
• Ryzen 5600X, ROG Strix B550-I, RX 6900 XT, 32GB Vengeance, 960GB MP510
• be quiet 500DX, i7 11700K, ROG Strix Z590-E, RTX 3080 FE + RTX 3080 Ti Ventus 3X OC, 64GB HyperX Fury, 2TB SN850

Make sure you do regular dusting and cleaning of the radiator and fans to keep the cooling at its best.
Enjoy.
