Back when they gave a damn and included a usable cooler for their CPUs. So I went and grabbed one of the old Intel coolers. No idea how this thing ever got good reviews. A closer inspection revealed poor build quality and a serious design flaw that gave almost no contact between the baseplate and heatpipes. I tried "the best SFF cooler" scythe shuriken, but it also failed miserably. Even using bolts through the MOBO proved the cooler could not handle the stock CPU. Insisted that if I just smashed the cooler on even harder it would somehow magically be able to do it's job. I had the exact same issue with the same CPU.quick overheating and throttling at stock speed with the stock cooler.Įveryone swore that the sh*t 35 watt stock cooler was made to handle the 90+ watt i7. We are not trying to overclock beyond whatever the bios does automagically. System Serial Number: To Be Filled By O.E.M.įAILIt is using the retail HSF, but I remember when I built it, I had a bear of a time getting the HSF on.couldn't quite get the 4 posts to click in, but I did get them stable.ĭoes anyone have a suggestion for an easy mount HSF for this cpu / mobo? I will try remounting it, but I fear we will just run into the same problem. Graphics Information: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
Processor Information: Intel64 Family 6 Model 60 Stepping 3 Processor Name: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU 4.00GHz Please check your Processor Thermal Solution Of course when you're talking about the top-end Intel CPU's then business as usual is something we're very happy to have.Expected Greater than 1 degrees below max Perhaps that's why it's a small increase in model number, rather than the wholesale step change we normally experience with an Intel processor revision. The improvement to the base frequency is one of only two main changes that form part of the i7-4790K. So with so little that is new to talk about, let's crack straight on. Just an improvement in clock speed and a slight fettling of the thermal interface that dogged the early Haswell processors. However, the model number of this particular CPU, a i7-4790K rather than i7-4770K, indicates that this is a tweak as opposed to a huge adjustment. The release of the Z97 motherboards had us salivating at what the new Haswell CPUs would bring to the table. Such has been Intel's dominance of the CPU market in recent years, they've usually held off releasing a new CPU until they are on either a full-scale architecture change, or a reduction in the nm process used.
