Cooling/Water Cooling by stefan @ 2017-04-10
Even when dealing with an overclocked octa-core Ryzen 7 1700 CPU at 3.9GHz, the Corsair Hydro Series H110i could handle its task with ease, so we have got a maximum of 50 degrees Celsius while running an instance of Prime95 in the Quiet Profile. The noise levels are also very acceptable in this state, since we have measured a maximum of 39.7 dBA, 30 cm away from the test system.
For testing out the Corsair Hydro Series H110i CPU cooler, we have installed it on our MSI X370 Xpower Gaming Titanium motherboard, which did have the AMD Ryzen 7 1700 CPU mounted along with a Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3000MHz dual-channel memory kit. For storage we have mounted an OCZ Vector 150 240GB SSD, the video interface was assured by a KFA2 GTX 1060 OC 6GB video card and all was installed inside a Cooler Master ATCS 840 Tower Case.
We did configure an all-core overclock to 3.9GHz via Ryzen Master, at a voltage of 1.3V. Why choose the Ryzen 7 1700 you may ask? Well…the answer is pretty simple: this CPU is the only one from the Ryzen 7 series which does not feature a +20 degrees Celsius offset for the tCTL reading so we are getting more accurate temperatures from the monitoring programs.
In order to heat up the cooling system and stabilize at the maximum temperature, we have ran Prime95 (Blend) and afterwards we have logged the highest temperature. This process was done for each preset (Quiet, Balanced, Performance) in Corsair Link.
