There are a couple of things that we can look at before we replace the AIO.įirst - the mounting. If you know of a cheaper solution, fans wise, do tell. I might even entertain replacing the Corsair rad fans w/ a pair of my beloved brand by Noctua. Might you have any thoughts on any of these or even something else? Would love to hear your thoughts. I've been eyeballin' brands Corsair, NZXT, EVGA, Thermaltake.all 280mm AIO's. This is the 1st time I'm feeling more confident that what I need is a higher C/w capable AIO. But never wanted to, for fear my issue w/ even a new AIO would surface. I've been itching to pull the trigger on a 280mm AIO for some time, now. Sure as shit, my fans haven't reached DC9/MD80(I'm going w/ these planes as my dad spent his career working on them. we (or you) really need to get a look at that coolant temp.ĭamn, DevBiker that is truly some helpful info, no joke, yo! iCue reports my coolant temp(at least I think that's what the temp sensor is reading) as 40C / 104F. And the stock fans at 100% do bear an uncanny resemblance to a 737 taking off.

if the coolant hits 40C, the fans go to 100%. All of these fans run at whatever speed I set them to, and do NOT change speed w/o my input.ĭoes anyone have some advice? Does anyone need more info?Īctually, I see in the title that it's an H80i V2. My case has 5 140mm(3 intake, 2 top exhaust) Noctua fans that all run off of a 4-ch fan controller. It's when they jump to 950rpm that gets to me. BTW, the rad fans are tame when at ~750rpm. That's fine it's when the rad fans start to fluctuate frequently that irritates me. When I enable folding again, the rad fans usually steadily increase, sometimes not, like, right now where the room temp is 78F. If I stop the folding, the radiator fans settle down, AND don't throttle any. In this PC, I'm running a 2080Super, if that helps. Nothing, at least, that would warrant immediate RPM changes in the radiators stock dual fans. HWiNFO64 V7.06-4500 doesn't show any wild temp fluctuations on the CPU or GPU.

In the last ~18 months, it's been throttling wildly. It's important to note that for all this time, I have been running since 9/2016.

For ~three years, I don't recall this ever being an issue.
