Asus Crosshair VIII Hero X570 Chipset Temperature

[zekikosiff]

Hello my motherboard chipset (pch) temperature idle 60-62 max 72 this is normal temp ?
Bios 0803

Rock on Red Thanks Man

Will switch those ram sticks round tomorrow.

Have a great day! :cool:

Hey there Jack appreciate the reaching out.

I've been trying hard to ensure good airflow but it might be this case (Not a lot of options) It's a TT view 37 I've moved my GPU from being mounted right over the active cooler to being vertically mounted and I replaced my initial 2080TI twin fan from Zotac with a XC Hybrid 2080ti (With that AIO) set to exuast out the back.

With the GPU fans on full blast and all the other case fans I can control (Cannot control the software or fan RPMS for my original case fans (two large in front and one that was exhaust on top but is now intake on bottom and two fans on the Thermal Take AIO up front mounted as an intake) all of those fans I can't seem to control due to Thermal Take Software error Seen in the Link below:

Both CPU and GPU are liquid cooled by Aio's

Hi Nazkai,

Looking at your case it seems hard to get a good airflow (top of the case is closed).
Does your situation improve when you leave off the transparent cover?

[nazkai]

Hello Jack,

I'd Agree with ya there and perhaps that is it but GN said the case actually has good airflow see here:

And yes when I leave off the plastic cover the PCH temps still do not change I think it has more to do with Voltage then anything else running at 60c at the moment.

See this link here and the video below for reference

Perhaps I have a bad board or these can be normal. I see your PCH at 58c I idle in one of your own screenshots I think yeah?

thanks for helping man I appreciate the assistance.

Asus support said to me via email that temp spikes up to 100 degree are fine...

I really doubt that!

You can replace the ****ty thermalpad with a copper pad... your temps will decrease +/- 15 degree

Thank you for sharing that information, it confirms my guesstimate.

[nazkai]

Thanks Pycoder and Red.

I wouldn't know how to get in and replace that pad without possibly making things worse.

Probably best to leave well enough and hot enough alone I guess and then RMA if it dies.

Hey Red I am still thinking about getting that Ryujin360 at some point or else waiting on the next model that comes out with a Fan because right now on these forums there are a lot of people in posts complaining that the Software Crate is not working properly with the Ryujin and also found a review up on Youtoube that determined that the OLED screen Temp readings come from the Mobo at the base of the CPU and not from the CPU package which could be updated in software but kinda sucks.

So I am holding off till they fix that or unless my C: Samsung m.2 NVME EVO 1 TB drive starts running too hot over 50-60c since the fan on that Ryujin could cool it some.

Still gotta figure out my 32 GB of Corsair dual rank ram running better at some point than the 16-16-18-36-70 525 2T I got it sitting at right now but that is gonna take some research on that DRAM calc and a better understanding of the infinity fabric on my part so for now I am studying.

Thanks Gents.

I would not bother, I really doubt the temp matters and I did mention the main reason people get caught up in a temperature paradigm.

Software create I don't use, cant comment.

I'll play devil's advocate to Ryujin. CPU package is the average temperature. This would be what you cooler should be measuring simply because that is what it is actually dealing with. It's like people saying CPU diode temp is important (or too a Intel fanboy it's your only hope of proving AMD run hotter) .... to your cooler it isn't a realistic value unless your using liquid nitrogen (in which case cpu diode temp is all that matters). To your CPU, diode temp effects clock performance, lower it is more likely you can clock higher on one or more cores (all). These things are inter related but what it measures is basically eye candy, after a month of your system working, your not even going to look at it, till you either make a problem for yourself or something isn't right.

The Ryujin is expensive but the coolermaster is always another good option. I would only expect the VRM to see cooling in any from that matters (I might be wrong maybe the PCH will be helped, it would not be in my system the video card would stop that).

Hey Red,

Been learning to live with and love the temps instead of letting em get to me too much. Course we've hit winter here in Chicago now and Ambient is lower so (We'll see when Summer rolls around.) 🙂

Gonna wait on swapping out the AIO cooler until I have more of an issue since I think most of my issue has been me being too worried about temps 😄

Got a new question to run by you on this board since I know you run the exact same board CH8 Wifi yeah?

Do you use the secondary M.2_2 slot or no?

Reason I ask is I am running a single 2080TI and I have the 970 EVO (PCIE 3rd Gen) 1TB as my boot drive atm and I am considering getting more storage but I've heard mention that if you use both M.2's at the same time that might take up too many PCIE lanes and effect either Video 16X or other performance?


I'd like to get another NMVE M.2. in that second slot at some point and I'd like your advice on if that's wise with my config on this board whenever you have some time man. Wondering if Is there a better route to take for more storage or is 2 M.2's good to go in this Mobo?

No, I currently do not.

The articles most likely refer to older generations of the board or the ever popular triple GPU's combo (that you have to have more money than brains) to run.

Here is how your board pcie lanes work:-
In General:-

CH8 Specification (source: the manual):-

short answer no problem - till you running three gpu's and second m2 from what I read.

One thing interesting, off topic, the mix of Gen 3.0 and Gen 4.0 on Ryzen 2000 series on this board, specifically 16_3 x4 Gen 4 ? typo? I think should be Gen 3 like the other two. And you would be better using the Second m2 as your primary if you had gen x4.0 device.

Hope you find this of help.

Hey There Red.

Thanks for getting back on this.

Ok cool then glad to hear it would not effect my single GPU or PCIE 16X data transfer in a negative manner, at the moment I have my 970 NVME evo as my primary boot drive and it's a (3rd gen)

Aside from that I've got the single 16X 2080ti in the first slot (On a riser cable actually to keep its bulk and it's heat away from the PCH fan on the Mobo)

I also run 2 high speed Sata SSD's @ 500 GB's a piece one WDC Blue and one 860 EVO (which I use for storage and slower smaller games that don't need to have the fastest performance moving assets from while gaming (Those kinds of resource heavy games like Red Dead II I keep on the boot NVME in my m2._1 slot

Honestly It's all fast enough for me thus far and I was just considering more space and wanting to use that m.2_2 as a large storage drive.

But now that you mention it since I do have the ability to do a "4th Gen" NVME at some point that is one option I am considering.
(I'd just need to clone my OS over to the new Faster M.2 in _2 and then I could use the _1 slot as a 1TB storage device or a back up OS device.

One thing I did not fully understand was why you suggest I put the new 4th NVME m.2 in the _2 slot rather then _1?

Thanks man.
