Just for the heck of it, and if you're okay trying it, try quickly touching the cooling block on the CPU, if the CPU really is 80C+ any time period longer than a tap will burn. So if you're okay with the small risk touch it really fast to see how hot it is, if it isn't hot then the CPU isn't hot or somehow the cooling block isn't touching the CPU (highly doubt that). As far as the cooling pump you can't do much more than replace it sadly.
I have not heard all the computer cooling pumps in the would but the ones I have listen to don't make a bunch of noise. That is why I asked for all the specs filled in. (What brand of pump) then I could do some research and see if others are having that kind of problem.
Is the 77C under gaming load or a idle, or what. 77C under gaming load is not bad.
The load put on the computer will also up clock it or down clock it. Of course so will temps.
I don't ask for this information because I can't find something better to do.
I like and want to help. I can't do it without information. Any body can through out a bunch of guesses. A noisy pump can be caused by air in the system ect. Is this cooling system a $600.00 custom build or a H100i ect.
The case is a mid size case with two video cards. Are their extra fans installed for cooling?
Boot into BIOS and check the temperature there, it should be very accurate. If not, I suspect a sensor on the mobo for the cpu is bogus.
No one is trying to ignore you, just some of your questions have been redundant is all. Though yes water system details would be nice, I just haven't asked for it myself because it wasn't required info in my questioning. He has said the cooling pump sounds the same as usual and that the radiator fan is clean and moving, verified by the fans reported RPMs, along with he says the coolant is fine, and he's shown that these temps are at idle with nothing going on.
Another thing in my mind is what type of coolant is in use? I'm not a water cooling pro but don't some need to be flushed every once and awhile otherwise they clog?
I was told my type of water cooling system does not need to be flushed/refilled
Okay, darn thought I was on to something haha. Seeing as you bought it as a custom made water cooled computer and was told it never needed to be serviced I'm going to assume it's a closed loop system, nothing user serviceable. Something like this. CORSAIR H55 Quiet CPU Coolers - Newegg.com Does it look similar to that? No place to add/remove coolant.
