i7-8700k runs insanely hot even at stock speeds ?

[StrayKAT]

whoa then the mobo pumps a lot more voltage than needed, I heard there's a lot of confusion with auto voltage on new intel chips. manual voltage is the best solution then.



It's probably about the voltages, not the cooler.

Yep, adjusting a negative voltage offset has given me much peace of mind (but I'm on 7700k). In addition to an AIO.

Using IBT? What voltage? Give that data some context....

the intel chips do not throttle at less than 100 C can we get this straight.. they run at whatever they are set to run at until they hit 100 C.. then they throttle back to whatever speed keeps them at 100 C..

That too depends on the actual chip. Many don't throttle at all. They just shut down.

 

[trog100]

my 4790K chip throttled at 100 C my 7700K chip throttles at 100 C.. i dont own an 8700K but i think its reasonable to assume it does the same thing..

as for going above that and then shutting down.. i imagine that if the cooler fell off the chip would simply shut down..

no more from me this will get far too f-cking nit picking anal for my liking..

Hey man. My 8700K runs at 33-37c stock air cooled on a D15s. Gaming it never exceeds 52c. I have it overclocked to 4.7 with no temps that hot. Something is not right.

IF is 8700 what voltage ? ))) is default,fell shame you are basic at this

 

[eidairaman1]

Ambient temps, check cooler for plastic sleeve on bottom, reseat the cooler. Bios reset the mobo

What is does it read your stock voltage at (every cpu is different and motherboard how it does MCE)? Are those temps from a stress or... from what? Its useless to throw numbers up without explaining what it is from amd other relavent information.

Its a shame im basic at this?? Are you trying to insult me when im asking questions to give your post some context so it can actually help the OP? The real shame comes when you wont give the information up and make a futile attempt at an insult.

It's an msi board it he set xmp it overclocked the chip to all cores at 4.3

Water cooling is probably going to be the future of cooling. As for those temps I'd say, like others have said, nowhere near being something that I would worry about.

What is your 4.7GHz OC Voltage ? How do you know that if your temps are not that hot, do you have tried to run intel burn test at custom stress level "8000 mb" "Times to run 5" ? Like me... Please compare apples to apples!

 

[erocker]

@Verbatim Check your VCCIO and VCCSA voltages.

XMP on many boards will have these two voltages set quite high. They affect your CPU temperatures. You can usually find what they are at in the bios or programs like HW Bot, Aida 64, etc.

It does not affect temperatures a lot in my case.

That doesn't tell me anything. Best of luck.

I'll take a pic when I get home on Tuesday. Stress tested for 24 hours. My case has phenomenal airflow and room temps are usually on the cooler side.

 

[Krit]

Who has i7-8700k cpu ? Please all run intel burn test like me to compare 1:1 Settings are fully stock cpu/voltages and custom stress level "8000 mb" "Times to run 5" for intel burn test.

That doesn't tell me anything. Best of luck.

I have tried to lowering these voltages but temperatures are almost the same... So it's isn't helping to me.

 

[FR@NK]

Have you tried lowering the core voltage?

Your temps are high because your board is raising the core voltage way too high for 4.3GHz. 1.25v should get you all cores to 4.7GHz.

 

[Krit]

Maybe when new MSI bios will be released the voltage problem will be fixed ? Actually i think my cpu can handle 1.25v @ 4.8GHz on all cores. That's good or bad or average ?

It won't be. Just set the voltage from auto to 1.18v or so and be done with it

Ok i will try tomorrow. But i do not understand way msi motherboard has such a high stock voltage ? It's not good at all.

 

[drade]

What mobo ?

 

[Krit]

What mobo ?

MSI Z370M GAMING PRO AC

 

[drade]

Hmmm . I have the M5 no issues. I've heard some voltage issues regarding your mobo but not the M5.

It may not be the motherboard, which is why you have to test out adjusting the voltages. It's entirely possible that the VID off the CPU is calling for appropriate voltages for the CPU. Some CPUs need more voltage than others for the same clock and it's not out of the realm of possibility that it's not a golden CPU. Either way, as I said earlier, I would suggest using a negative voltage offset, start small and go from there.
