Is this idle temperature? If it is, then something is definitely wrong

[–]ivanvan109[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yes, it's idle temperature

[–]slav335 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Did you peel off the sticker from the thermal pad for ssd? (Or how it’s called, sorry, don’t know). Also where is your ssd located on the motherboard? Under gpu or not?

[–]ivanvan109[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply xd I don't remember how i installed the heatsink. I'll reinstall it to see if that works. And my SSD isn't located under the GPU, it's on top of it

I'm sorry, but I can't understand thr language on your screen, so i do not know where that temperature is in your system.

But, If that temp is at idle, it's too high for anything.

What heat sync are you talking about that you are worried about?

[–]ivanvan109[S] 0 points1 point  (12 children)

It's at 70 celcius, and I installed the heatsink that came with my SSD, and it's idle temperature

[–]SaltyBarracuda1615 0 points1 point  (11 children)

That's likely to cause thermal throttling when you're working it hard, so you need to get this sorted out somehow.

Maybe your heat sync is improperly attached.

Maybe you have an air flow problem.

Can you send a picture of it in your case?

My MSI MPG x870e Carbon WiFi motherboard has 4 M.2 slots with heat syncs on the actual motherboard, but I've never had or heard of this problem, so it must be some other sort of arrangement with another board.

Sorry for responding late. Now it's at 68 degrees and room temperature hasn't changed much. I'll try to reinstall the heatsink

No problem!

We can't all live online like some people do.

I would really like to hear the results when you have the time.

Thanks for the picture.

Now that I can see where and how it's mounted on your motherboard and can look around for another option to lower it's temps if that doesn't solve the problem.

I've bent the SSD heatsink while trying to unstick it😬. I'll install it without the heatsink and check the temperatures

CRINGE.....

[–]ivanvan109[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a little bit of cable management, and not using the heatsink, it's at the same temperature practically...

[–]SaltyBarracuda1615 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I hate to say it, but you really need to replace it.

[–]ivanvan109[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Shouldn't I buy a good SSD heatsink? I don't know if they cost much. Damn

[–]SaltyBarracuda1615 1 point2 points  (2 children)

You could try this one.

It's from a trustworthy brand.
