Suitable Mobo for 7700k !!!
Currently using 7700k with Asus B150 pro gaming. Coolermaster seidon v120. In game temp 60-70 deg. In prime 95 stress test, it raises to 90deg!
Summer yet to come :/ temp will go above 100 for sure.
My question:
will z270 mobo can solve this issue?
will 240 series water cooler solve this issue?
Why will a change of motherboard change the temperature?
My friend has similar temps as you, and he has a 120MM AIO as well. Upgrading to 240mm should have a pretty decent impact, try and use better thermal paste/grease as well.
KabyLake cpus have this HIGH Temp issues.
Z270 mobo is basically for Overclocking. Mobo has nothing to do with this temp.
Get a 240mm AIO to get a better result or a big Air Cooler.
Delidding for the win. You'll see as high as 20 Celsius and possibly further reduction if you can manage to pull it off. But it comes at a risk.
Tom's Hardware saw similar temperatures with a AIO Enermax Liqtech 240 equipped with 2x be quiet! Silent Wings II as it can be seen here.Originally Posted by aayman

Bought MSI z270 tomahook today. Run prime95 for 5mins, got temp of max 75Deg. Have to say much improvement (previous 92deg).
But is it happened only for mobo? :/
I don't think so.
That's impossible, did you reapply thermal paste?
Most likely better TIM. And Prime 95 is an unrealistic benchmark. It's mostly for stability test more like GPU's FurMark or OCCT. No real world software will ever push the CPU that much. Plus it uses AVX that gets the CPu really hot whereas AVX is pretty rare in usage in day to day everyday software. Same for Intel Burn Test. Also Intel chips after Ivy Bridge get 75°C pretty regularly cause they need delidding. Try that.
previously i used FX6100, mobo was probably 640 series or something. when i bought 8350, that mobo couldnt run 8350 at 4gz. so i had to set at 3.3gz. after buying fx990 series mobo all was fine.

what do u recommend then? intel xtu? asus real bench? and?
i use occt btw
Your sheer fanboyism is getting quite annoying. Keep it in control please.
only explanation is previous mb set vcore higher then current one.
actually im bit noob
i do and i see what has been set automatically. have a little idea about manual things
For stability test after OC? Prime 95 is fine. What I'm saying is you would never reach same temp as these stability tests in real world. And since OP wasn't OCing in that B350 motherboard, it was fruitless to take that temp into consideration.
I think OP had a bad mount. All the change of motherboard did was fix the mount during the upgrade procedure.
