I recently RMA'd my H80i and installation went fine. It's an identical setup to my previous H80i - I simply removed the unit, thoroughly cleaned the paste off and fitted the new H80i.
I notice idle temp is nearly 45C. It used to be 38C.
Running a few tests in Prime95 it's hit 100C so I had to stop the test.
I'm running a very small case so I get fairly high temps. But this new unit is performing considerably worse in identical conditions
I also notice there comes a point where the H80i fluid temp starts rising considerably - it was at 40C when my CPU hit 100C and going up at a rate of almost 0.1C per few seconds.
Long winded post, sorry, but could it be the thermal paste? I'm not ruling out the possibility I screwed up, though the cooler fitted without an issue - went straight down onto CPU and was tightened up without movement on the surface of the chip.
TTL;DR - Any suggestions for thermal paste as mine may be screwed.
Thanks
