HP Recommended
Product: Omen 30L
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

It has 10700k with little 120mm All in one water cooler on it.

The temperature and the fan noise is dreadful for my purpose:  rendering computer.

Currently I'm undervolting the cpu as far as the stock clock is allowing to lower the temperature but it is still too hot and noisy.

My approach is to change fan to something less noisy and also change thermal paste. (no delid)

 

My question is, Is the base of the water block copper? Or is it aluminium?

It's very important to me to see if I can use conductive thermal paste on the CPU.

 

I was checking everywhere from hp support pages to coolermaster homepage but no luck so far.

 

Any insight would be appreciated!
