Well fellas I went to BestBuy and bought a $40 CoolerMaster 120mm air cooler. Popped that on and my temps have been completely normal. Played Apex Legends, Valorant, and Tarkov. Highest temperature recorded was 81C, but was running between 60-70C while gaming. Looks like the pump in my AIO...

There is no give or wiggle room when I press on the water block. Everything seems to be firmly in place. I am currently waiting for a call back from iBuyPower. I am very tempted to, in the mean time, run to BestBuy an grab a new cooler to try and see if it fixes the problem, then just return...

I also want to add, I noticed in the picture of an AIO you sent me, there were wires going into the black box that is embedded in the radiator. On mine, there are no wires there. There are wires going into the other part of the AIO that attaches to the CPU. does this make any difference? Does...

It is sounding more and more like my AIO went bad. I wish it were easier to tell. The software I'm using says the pump is working, but my CPU is still way too hot. We've determined by now that it is probably not the thermal paste causing the issues. I don't know anything about that CPU...

I really hope this isn't the case. The AIO is only a year old and they are supposed to last far longer than that.

It seems like this changes everyday now. After shutting down the PC for the night, today I fired it up and I opened up HWMonitor and Apex Legends. My current temp running Apex is 70-80C with a max of 90.8C and a low of 42.6C since the PC has been turned on . It is hard to tell whether the...

It has never been overclocked. Not by me or IBP. You said that both liquid tubes should feel the same temperature, but wouldn't it make sense for the incoming tube to be hot and the outgoing tube to be cool? Otherwise how would this be an effective cooling mechanism if it is keeping the same...

I don't know how something like this could occur. The PC worked fine for over a year, it has rarely been moved, how would screws come lose and get lost? I also don't know where to look either way. Do you think it could be the drivers or something causing the CPU to over heat? Cache can't...

It is A. The tubes felt the same when I felt them earlier.

Thankfully if the part is broken, I have a 3 year warranty on the PC from iBuyPower, so they should be able to replace the cooling unit.

Am I feeling for vibration when I feel the tubes or am I feeling for heat? What troubles me is the radiator itself is cool to the touch when the CPU is running at like 85C or higher which does not make sense. Both of the tubes feel warm and so does the very bottom of the radiator where they...

Lafong, I appreciate your attempt at solving the issue. I am also unsure of what is happening and also unsure of what could be wrong with the liquid cooler of that is what’s causing the problem. I see nothing hammering in the CPU in task manager, so maybe it’s a driver issue or some other...

Right now I have HWMonitor, AMD Radeon Software, SpeedFan, and MSI Afterburner all monitoring the CPU temperature, and all but SpeedFan are reading my CPU temp as 70C right now. Although, SpeedFan says the CPU temperature is still 56C which is still too hot for doing practically nothing...

I am now idling with google, task manager, and HWMonitor open at 83.5C. its worse than it was an hour ago lol I have no idea what to do here. I just wanna play games man... On HWMonitor it says "Chassis #7 Fan 65,280RPM" which is very obviously not true. But how can I tell if this is the...
