HELP! Why is my CPU Temperature so high?
Need some help with my system. Here are the Specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K (Non Overclocked)
Motherboard: GA-F2A58M-DS2
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 1600Mhz 2x4GB
Power Supply: Corsair VS550 PSU
Graphics Card: XFX R9 270 Double D
Cooling Unit: Cooler Master Seidon 120V

After some check, and ensure that fans are working correctly, there is good airflow in my system, that any thermal compound is properly applied, and all water cooling units and their pumps are working well, I have identified unusually high CPU Temps, idling at around 50-70C and reaching 80-90C Underload which is way too high especially for a watercooled unit. I am very very sure my installation methods are in good order, and that non of the parts are faulty. I have my suspicions on possible false reports being given, by SpeedFan, HWMonitor and the motherboards BIOS itself, which are all reporting the same temp. Any ideas what could be wrong?

You might want to check the temperature of the cooling liquid. The radiator might not be cooling it sufficiently.

try lowering the core voltage to 1.2v

and make sure the cpu fan is plugged into the cpu_fan header on the board

Make sure the intake for the CPU cooler isn't coming from a place with a lot of heat. I have the intake coming from outside the PC so only cool air can go through it. Some people have the intake inside the PC which just sends hot air into the cooler.
My PC also idles at 40 degrees C and maxes at 65 degrees.

You purchased one of the lowest priced sealed water cooling kits on the market. Turn the fan up to 100% and see what you get.

The radiator fan is pluged into CPU Fan Header and the Pump Fan is plugged into Sys_Fan 1 Header. Ill try to lower the core voltage and see what happens

The temperatures I reported were with the Radiator fan running at 100%. With the fan running at this setting, the air being exhausted from the Radiator is pretty cool, but the temps are still very high, especially under load. The tubes feel cool, but if I turn the fan down, the radiator and tubes heat up, indicating that the pumps etc. are working correctly. I have a feeling it might be reporting incorect temps but I can't be too sure

If you think it's down to a software error could you try re installing the OS? Maybe somethings corrupt.

If you have a Infrared thermometer or borrow one.

Try measuring the tubes, the top and sides of the CPU cooling block and if possible the CPU and / or CPU socket.

If the temperatures are still within the optimal range, then it's very likely the thermal paste is uneven.

It's unlikely (but not impossible) that the motherboard sensors are off or defective.

The watercooling radiator fan is in Push config. (Cool air from inside the case being pushed onto the radiator and out of the case). The area behind this fan is cool because the cooling of the rest of the system is adequate and the rest of the chassis is cool. The GPU is doing its own thing, and the front/side intakes are working in tandem to supply cool air to the case.

Both tubes feel "warm" to touch with the radiator fans running at around 60%, not cold, but not hot either.

Ill see if I can get hold of one. I doubt the thermal issue is the issue because I have re-applied Artic Silver thermal compound more than 3 times now using 3 different methods and ensuring to use isopropyl alchohol to clean off residue each time, I also had this issue with an aftermarket lower end Air cooler called Artic Freezer A11, with similar results..

Are you sure it's an even and sufficient coating?

Too much or too little makes the heat transfer very poor.

Are those core temps or socket temps?

Either way thats still way too hot..

Napalm is right. Yes, socket temps will typically read 10-20C higher than core temps on AMD CPUs, but that's irrelevant since OP's temps are still well above the threshold value for either one.

Partisan, no disrespect intended, but I'm not sure why you keep posting in threads... at times even resurrecting old ones to voice your opinion well after the fact... and then insulting everyone who responds and accusing them of stalking.

If you're seeing some familiar names "following you around," it's because there are a handful of regular contributors here who offer their help pretty frequently. You don't have to agree with them (I often don't), but rest assured, it has nothing to do with you personally.

TY, yeah he is actually following me around for making a comment on a post that clearly made him butthurt.. Not everyone can handle the truth..

Back to the OP , Have you tried putting some new thermal paste on ?
