So I have a brand new desktop, and when I run Furmark on my new system, the GPUs hit 97C within 90 seconds, and show no signs of stopping when I kill Furmark to prevent damage.
CPU: i7-2600k at stock (for now). Idles at ~40C, loads at ~62C.
CPU cooler: Cooler Master hyper 212 plus with 2 140mm fans in push-pull pointing towards the back exhaust fan
GPU: CFX XFX 6970's with 1 slot in between the cards. Idles at 57C, loads at I honestly don't want to know.
Case: Corsair 650D. 1 200 mm stock intake fan in front, 2 140mm Thermalright X-Silents intake on top, and 1 stock 120mm exhaust in the back.
Is there anything I can do to lower my temps? If I crank the fans manually to 100%, it'll load at ~95C, but that literally shakes the room I'm in and sounds like a jet engine, and if I take the sides off and point a 20 inch box fan at it on high, it loads at 97C.
Edit: After doing some research, I let it go to 100C. It took 157 seconds, and now my fans are running at 73% and sound like a small jet engine. Load temps after 10 minutes are 103C. Is this expected?
Further edit: 105 after 15 minutes
