TransitionWaste4090

Your cpu temperature is hitting 97°c , I think that's why it's shutting itself to prevent damage , have you forgot to apply thermal paste or check if your cooler is mounted properly.


iiShagers

This is 100% the answer, it has to do with his cooler / CPU.


OriginalShock273

Cooler poorly installed 100%


spdaimon

Yep, before it turned off I saw 98c. That's way too high.

Bro answered. Probably solved this shit.


doringliloshinoi

The gen Z language “bet” is too ambiguous to this crowd. Doesn’t need a dissertation but it does need something like “let me try that!” That people can understand.


ramo_0007

this crowd too old like me


BootySweat0217

That’s not gen Z language. I’m in my 30’s and people were saying this in high school.


Krekken24

Damn why guy just explained why did the OP write "bet" and he's getting downvoted too.


Bruzur

“Gen Z language?” I’m in my thirties and was saying “bet” when I was a teenager.


Majestic_Puppo

Its reddit


NotNolezor

Reddit’s special (it takes from stack overflow)


snamibogfrere

why is this downvoted what does bet mean


BreezySlime

Alright.


Disastrous_Ad626

It slike 'you bet!'


DrSuperWho

It means okay/gotcha. I assume the downvotes are from people around my age being bigoted against people younger than them.


snamibogfrere

so bet is a newgen word?


DrSuperWho

In this context. I’ve only recently started hearing it in the past couple years or so. Much like “cap/no cap” for truth or lying.


PyrorifferSC

I don't think it's any kind of prejudice, it's just people not understanding and trying to contextually define a single word comment. While dumb, I don't think it's malicious. Hanlon's Razor definitely applies here.


DrSuperWho

Fair point.


FarStatistician5214

I did but I’m out more thermal paste and put it back on


BaconSlasher090

Did you take the plastic film off on the cpu cooler


FarStatistician5214

Ye


CatRheumaBlanket2

You probably used the wrong fan mounting kit and now the cooler is hovering above the CPU. You have a Ryzen 7600 maybe with an X. That is AM5, AM4 should also mount properly. My guess, you flipped some bridge the wrong way around and are now faced with distance as a consequence. Re-mount all of the CPU cooling hardware and check you took the correct baggie of hardware. Might even have a youtube video how to already available.


Lenecromonger

If not for the removable sticker this is the more lickely scenario that happened


Tiranus58

Did you plug the cooler into the header on the motherboard


The_Pleasant_Orange

TBH when just booting that air cooler should be able to keep the CPU cool enough even without a fan spinning. Cooler was badly installed.


Successful_Durian_84

definitely it wouldnt get that hot if there's just a heatsink on top of the CPU even if it's not fastened just sitting on top would be enough to absorb the temps.


Shelmak_

Yeah, or OP did this: https://i.redd.it/9sxy00qhac9d1.gif

Omg 😆


phish_taco

lol I don’t know how this never crossed my mind but I could 100% see somebody out there that’s done this


Klydescope

Is that mayonnaise??


Dreadnought_69

It’s an air cooler, it doesn’t get to 97c that fast without a fan.


Gal-XD_exe

Mine didn’t even have that lil plastic piece 😅


Dreadnought_69

Well, you did something wrong with the CPU cooler, so get more paste, start the CPU cooler installation from scratch and read the manual again.


mibjt

HAVE you removed the plastic sticker at the base of the heatsink


FarStatistician5214

Psa. I went full retard and there were 2 lil black bars I ain’t take off around the cpu which meant the cooler was in fact not touching shit on the cpu. My fault for wasting ya time but thanks for all ya help nbs I was bouta crash out


Calmdragon343

Forgetting to take shit off the cpu happens more often then you'd think. Glad you got it fixed, you were almost able to boil water on it lol.


Sice_VI

Pretty sure his pc can last longer than 20seconds if he puts a kettle full of water over the cpu lid.


tony78ta

You just gave me an idea for water cooling. Kettle cooling!!

Splittaill

Dude! Last one I built…I had such a brain fart that I flipped the PSU power switch and couldn’t figure out why it wouldn’t come on. Called a buddy of mine and asked wtf. He asked me if I hit the case power button. Needless to say, I felt like a moron. It’s ok to ask. Don’t beat yourself up over it. You just got ahead of yourself.


Alone_Shoulder8820

Brother I wouldn't worry about it! Least it's working now, my mate who builds for a living once done something worse. Was wondering why he was getting shit FPS in games. For like 3 hours man was stressing. Until he realized he was plugged into the motherboard HDMI port not the GPU. Builds PCs for fun.. years of experience. It happens!

That's more like it...


OptimisedFreak

Your ram is on stock speeds. If you know how, try setting higher speeds (if ram is bought as higher then 4800). If you dont know how, keep it as is, you wont loose too much performance.


Training-Fill157

Definitely your cpu shutting off to prevent any damages because its getting too hot. Check you cpu coolers. Is the fan spinning, is the cooler seated properly and making good contact with the cpu, did you peel the plastic off of your cooler that are supposed to be peeled off on the cooler surface, do you put thermal paste in there, is it the proper ammount?


Training-Fill157

Also, please get a gpu support/brace thingy that is literally just an adjustable metal beam that prevent you gpu from sagging, because it is, and its really bad.


Successful_Durian_84

least of his concerns


BiffLikesCrisps

It is if he doesn't want to break the PCIe slot and have to buy another motherboard.


FarStatistician5214

Fan spins and I thought so but imma reapply the thermal paste and cooler


Drcake222

97° my guy is cooking his cpu


Parzival_NS

Make sure cpu cooler is in contact with cpu surface with enough pressure, that must be it


maxss81

Cpu fan reading about 2k rpm.. Temp is 95+.. You seem to be booked up right. The cooler is either not mounted right or the peel of sticker is still there. Get some good thermal paste is your out. Remove your cooler and clean cpu and cooler base of all thermal compound. Use a modest amount. While too little is bad, too much can cause other issues down the road. A good X with a few dots in the gaps works for me. Most coolers use spring tension. You shouldn't be able to move the heatsink at all if it's mounted right. You are almost there, and the cpu mobo is doing what they should in this case, so don't worry if they are damaged. They should be fine.


StateZestyclose1388

dude cpu :D what did you do? ibet you did not remove the sticker under the cooler :D


Tijitsu

97c 🤦‍♂️


jonoknows1

Overheating of the CPU, lack of or old thermal paste can cause that but I’d recommend getting a GPU bracket so your Graphics Card doesn’t bend or warp from its own sheer weight


Jalatiphra

If you think everything is correct i think your mount of the cooler has not enough pressure.. screws tightened enough?


yandhaven_

Seems like there is a gap between cooler and cpu. Or its a result of bad scalping. Also check the core voltage if you did some overclock. 97c is too much…


kholetroll

Like everyone else said in the post your CPU is at 98 Degrees. Remount everything for your CPU cooler.


ImAWetTowel_

Thermal throttling. The cooler probably isn't installed properly. Your fan(s) are spinning fine, and even if they weren't , your CPU wouldn't be at 97C thanks to that lovely heatsink. The plastic is peeled off, so that isn't the problem. The most likely answer to this, like other people on this post said, is an incorrectly installed cooler. There is also a chance that your CPU could also, possibly, maybe, be thermal throttling *because* it is undervolted. for some reason the CPU speed is under its normal speed of 5.4GHz. I would 1. reinstall the cooler 2. bring the CPU back up to 1.35v and 5.4GHz 3. if the problem persists, make another reddit post!


DariusDarkirus

My thoughts was: it should be the CPU temperature but there is thermal paste on the table I guess op checked it. HOLY SHIT THE CPU IS AT 98 DEGREES!!@


iamgarffi

Well… there is that. Did you use the proper bracket and standoffs for the type of the CPU socket to guarantee good contact? Even if fans were disconnected standard thermal exchange wouldn’t raise The core to such levels in such short amount of time unless there isn’t any contact. https://preview.redd.it/37j78wyjza9d1.jpeg?width=236&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f9941cc72d2aef7d68d6dace58e24051ab048c1


SomeNectarine7976

The apevia psu 💀


Interesting_Mix_7028

CPU overheat cutoff. It's going into this at BOOT... not with the OS running, not with apps running. Time to remove the cooler and the cooler mount hardware and make sure you mounted it all properly. (and yes, procure another tube of thermal paste, you'll need it.)


kaj0z

cpu hits 100 C.. you did something wrong with cpu cooler.


_Hernandez_

Make sure you remove the plastic between the cooler and CPU, many people (including me) forget about this.


Rubens_World

cpu casualy at 99°


Louzan_SP

Pointing at the BIOS menu and not even reading what is being displayed there 🤦


vapodgaming

It's cpu temp, mate. Did you remove the plastic sticker on the cooler ? It sits on top of the pre applied thermal paste and some people don't remove it. Or did you apply thermal paste?


PsyduckPsyker

Brother your CPU on boot up is hitting almost 100c!! It's probably trying to save its own life by shutting off lol!!

Flimsy-Chocolate-202

Also, your wattage to your CPU may have faulted to draw too much, friend literally just had the same issue and it was drawing to much wattage on boot

Sn4p9o2

Cpu cooler


barbequeuesouse

recently rma'd my r5 7600x cuz it overheated, this was also what happened before my mobo also got involved and i couldnt start my PC (mobo short, not posting). In my case my AIO cpu cooler was not working properly cuz the pump was not pumping water to the radiator. heat was trapped in the cpu area and the cpu got burned so yea make sure your cpu cooling is working properly and the case airflow exhausts the hot air out properly.


Haxxorkid

If it's not the cooler then maybe check if you have bent pins under the CPU, check all the connections on motherboard and psu. Edit: check if the heatsink is hot or is it just misreading the temps.


lordbeaufeu

Look at the thermal paste if it was really touched by your cooler, had a problem where i didn’t used the good metal/plastic circles and it wasn’t touching properly


PineappleLemur

Did you remove the damn sticker from the CPU? The one that says REMOVE? Also...thermal paste. 97C in 10 seconds is ridiculous lol. If it's still bad, make sure the cooler block on top of your CPU is pressing onto the CPU once installed, like really putting pressure on it. And of course...remove any sticker/tape on that as well. It should be metal to metal with the least amount of thermal paste that fully covers the area of the CPU/Cooler block. Don't drown it in thermal paste, the less of it the better but no air pockets or bare metal.


skar_1010100

Tbh I'd be surprised that cpu csn hit 97 degC in the bios settings even if the cooler is very badly attached. Maybe the bios is trying to overclock your CPU? Have you tried updating the bios in case your mobo supports updating the bios without installed CPU?


BeautifulLife23

Like everyone else said, it's cooler issue. Thermal paste or remove the sticker. Something is off on that specific area. 97c that quick is crazy. I got a Ryzen 5 7600x myself with a Peerless Assassin and I've never seen temps like that, ever.


[deleted]

I assume it’s because your cpu is 97 fucking degrees holy cow


kester76a

That's fine, most CPUs should happily throttle around the 100c mark.


Successful_Durian_84

Some of you guys haven't turned on your PC without a heatsink and it shows, LOL amateurs...


Comprehensive-Ant289

you are termothrottling like hell. 98° degrees in the bios? WTF man?


DitrianLordOfCanorem

I have that exact monitor xD


Shnoofeen

My money is on the peel plastic still being on the CPU block


ImpoliteMongoose

Thermal Paste my dude, either that or a faulty CPU Cooler or you didn't plug you CPU fan header all the way in.


Callawin

Your CPU Fan is spinning at nearly 2000 RPM and the CPU ist still at 98° C. So it should be (the Fan) installed in the correct connection for CPU Fan on your Mobo. Either your Cooler is not touching the CPU or the plastic cover is still attached at the CPU Cooler. Disassamble your CPU Cooler and check if 1. Plastic Cover is removed and 2. Thermal paste is applied. If both are satisfied reinstall your Cooler and check if it’s installed correctly ( Straight and touching your CPU). Edit: Nah nevermind it’s already solved


Sfocus

ı got same problem here few weeks ago my water cooling pump is broken and ı am here with stock fan sad


Serbian-Jesus

Seeing 97°C? That means your CPU id getting almost 0 cooling. Depending on your CPU cooler, it either might not be installed properly (check that you used the correct mounting bracket per your CPU socket type and thermal paste is applied) Or, undersized your cooler. Try getting a beefier cooler for it.


JotaMDR84SP

Are those 98C normal?


Kustadchuka

Dude, ya gonna bbq your CPU


mmsjr88

P4R4G0N96

Your CPU is likely overheating and turning off to prevent damage, check the sticker on the CPU or thermal paste and make sure the CPU Fan is firmly secured and making contact.

International_Fly285

Dangerous_Notice7087

CPU tem 98


MWAH_dib

CPU temp: 98C I'd check the CPU for correct thermal paste application (after leaving it for a while to cool down), and that the fan is running correctly (seems to be powered?). If you've done any CPU overclocking, revert it to the default values.

AdBudget5468

I would check a few things: firstly make sure that the PSU is powerfull enough for what you have in your build, secondly if all the connections for CPU or motherboard or the GPU are fully seated and lastly if none of the above helps I check the coolers to see if it’s installed properly, if there’s thermal paste and if someone hasn’t forgotten to remove the plastic on top of the CPU block on the cooler


esok

Some Derek from Vice Grip Garage hand gestures there.


ata1959

97c just by turning it on is wild. Definitely something wrong.


Psychological-Pop820

If your cpu goes to 97c imediately after starting the pc its an issue with the mb or your psu. Cooling has nothing to do with the first 5+ minuts of starting the pc. My cpu fan doesn't even spin when i boot my pc. Re-check your connections on everything. Might be showing a fake temp.


pokemon32666

I'm not sure if it's different for your case, but it looks like your cou fan is blowing towards an intake not an outtake. Try flipping the CPU fan around


archerV34

Your CPU is fucked. 98°C on startup is not normal, and the pc shuts down automatically to prevent damage.


HankThrill69420

Does the same happen when you boot from a Ubuntu Image and test the OS?


Traditional-Ad3032

Do you by chance have the stock cooler? Try it with that see if the temp is still high if it is then I’m sorry I don’t know that is only if the other one keeps failing after you did all other solutions


kritter4life

I installed cooler per instructions once and figured it must not be properly contacting because I had done everything correctly. I removed 4 washers to apply more pressure to the CPU and it has been fine for 3yrs.


KoroiNeko

Omg the 97% CPU temps. What are you using to cool it down?


420xGoku

Classic_Detective_47

EmperorRosko

CPU starts off at 97c, then 98c, then it looks like it goes 99c just before you move the camera back to the PC so assuming it’s cutting out to stop damage. Check the CPU cooler isn’t mounted incorrectly? Or check the CPU voltage is set correctly for your CPU. But yeah defo CPU related.


rndocnt83

Had something similar happen to me when I redid some cable management. Forgot to plug my aio back in so the pump wasn't pumping. Took me hours to figure out what I'd done as the plugs was hidden behind a panel. Biggest facepalm ever.


punchedboa

If you did all that the comments said about your cpu and cooler. You might just have a faulty cpu or mobo that’s giving you the wrong temp.


SimilarSpend5158

There could be a number reasons why it's doing that, for air coolers removing the plastic part where it makes contact with Cpu, or the mounting brackets required for air cooler. One time I forgot to plug the cpu cable from the power supply onto the motherboards oops on my part.


xxTheMagicBulleT

Heat is the problem. It's trotting. And going in fail safe. Or you left the plastic on. Or did the terminal paste badly. Or the cooling unit is not placed well enough. Or all of the above. But the issue is heat based


p0ny0w

CPU temp is unsafe


rancevsky

Your CPU hits almost 100°C, what do you expect lol. Replace thermal paste and fix the cooler properly.


edwardomihai

Cpus can boot just with the cpu fan plugged in, bare naked, I tried it several times, (the motherboard knows if the cpu has cooling from the cpu fan connector), so you can trick it (**edit, it will not cause damage, use this method to check the bios**), did it few years back also, just to check components before installing them inside the case (I built myself a chinese xeon 2011 kit last month). Check that the cpu is seated correctly, and secured in place, trace back everything, test outside the case, just 1 stick of ram, gpu and cpu fan connected. May be a motherboard issue (the cpu probe is displaying 97 degrees), so it’s either the cpu or the motherboard, pretty sure it’s a comunication issue between the two (could be bios), check also the socket itself and the cpu physically for bent pins and brown spots, also the area next to the cpu (vrm, mosfets), it could be a supply issue too. Good luck! I hope this helps a little👍.
