AIO cooler

I'd like to know if my pump's noise is normal since I've never owned an AIO before. My CPU cooler used to be a Cryorig H7 which was very quiet when idle, much quieter than my new AIO is. However, since I own a 9700k and wanted to overclock it, the Cryorig H7 was not enough anymore. I can...

Hi, I'm currently using a Corsair H100x with my Asus Prime Z390-P motherboard. On my motherboard I have a slot for the CPU fan and then one for an AIO pump, I was just wondering which slot I should plug the Pump into and the radiator fans into. The installation guide just says put the AIO pump...

Hi, My friend recently bought a 360mm AIO and says he has noticed a big difference and suggests that I should buy one (He doesn't know much about PC hardware) I already have a 280mm Corsair h115i on an i5 8600k which is overclocked to 4.8GHz, would it be worth it to upgrade from my 280mm to a...

Hello there! I was wondering if I need to connect my AIO to either the CPU fan header or Pump fan header. Listed below is the AIO and MB I have. ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280 MSI MAG X570 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 3.7 GHz 12-Core Processor

I noticed that my CPU idle temps where super high as 50-70C (it's fluctuating and not stable) but when I'm gaming, my CPU temps would be about 48-55C My system is ROG Strix x570-F Ryzen 5 3600x MSI Magcore Liquid 360r 32GB @3200Mhz RTX 2080 I noticed the problem only happened when I changed...

I just bought the Artic liquid freezer II rev 3 240mm. My case doesn't support a top mount so i front-mounted it, my temps where way higher as i expected it to be (idle around 45 degrees). So i thought it maybe wasn't getting enough air because it has a thicker radiator. So i changed the...

Hi, Just wanna ask I'm getting the Auraflow x 360 AIO but my motherboard B350m mortar doesn't have a Pump Header, so where do I plug in the pump cable for the AIO.

Hello Everyone, I built my first PC about 2 years ago now and when I first booted it up all the RGB was working fine, as in it was doing the default rainbow colours on every RGB component. After a couple of months however, the AIO (Deepcool Castle 240 RGB) itself, the radiator fans and the case...

I can hear the liquid in my AIO passing through, but its much more intense then normal. It has this squeaking sound. Had this AIO since 2018 no problems till recently, the temperatures are fine, just want to know if this is a problem or if its normal.

Hello, I was installing a new CPU (Ryzen 7 5800x) and AIO (Corsair H60) on an ASUS TUF Gaming X570-PLUS Wi-Fi. I made some obvious mistakes, but none of which I expected to kill the system. First, I installed the new parts but I forgot to update the BIOS. I downloaded the BIOS files (from...

I recently just installed a new motherboard, a Asus B-550-f. When I plugged in my existing AIO pump, ( the Master Cooler ML240R) I plugged the pump header into a AIO pump header on the motherboard. The radiator fans are working fine, but upon closer inspection, my pump header is not working, and...

Hi folks, I am building my next gaming PC, in order to play games and possibly stream on my LG 34" 1440p ultrawide @ 144hz (LG 22" 1680x1050 second screen) ----> Partial build here https://pcpartpicker.com/list/82HM4d I have already upgraded my RAM, and hopefully find a nice 3080ti to pair...

Hello. I have an aio zalman lq 315 cooler installed on a B150 Gaming m3 motherboard, intel cpu. I was trying to unscrew it to apply thermal paste but i just cant get the black 4 corner screws off. They just keep turning in place. I tried multiple screwdrivers to no luck. Can anyone help? Pic...

I have the psi b450 tomahawk and the Lian Li Galahad 360 AIO. Do I connect the pump to the cpu fan header? Or do I connect it to the pump_header? Also the radiator fans are daisy chained and connected to the sys_fan header is that correct?

I just installed an AIO onto my pc and randomly it will turn off (LED screen) and all 3 fans will stop spinning. The AIO that i have is a gigabyte aorus 360mm liquid cpu cooler. I looked online and saw that qfan control switching from PWM to DC might help - the issue is i dont have the cables...

I am wanting to get a 240mm AIO to mount on the top of my Fractal Meshify C. If I mounted 2 or maybe 3 120mm fans on the front of the case as intakes, could the AIO on the top serve as enough output with no fans on the back side of the case? I am brand new to water-cooling so correct me if this...

Hello, I am experiencing some weird temperature increase with my EVGA CLC 120 AIO cooler. I have it for approximately 3.5 years so it would be really unpleasant for me if it brakes after (in my opinion) short time like this. I have a i5 7600k OCed to 4.6ghz and idle temps were around 32-33...

I'm building a shopping list for an mATX build involving a Ryzen 7 inside a Thermaltake Core V21 case, and I want to skip the accompanying cooler for a Corsair Hydro H60. I'm planning to take advantage of a microcenter CPU/Motherboard bundle, of which they have Ryzen 7s paired with a Gigabyte...

Hi, So I decided to upgrade my PC with a new MOBO, CPU and an AIO cooling system. What do i want to get : CPU: Ryzen 5 5600/5600X MOBO: MSI B350M MAG WIFI or AORUS B550M PRO (but I want MSI more likely) AIO: ID-Cooling Frostflow X240 My case is an IBOX Passion V4 Gaming, it's an minitower and...

Hi All A couple of days ago i got a warning when i booted up my PC saying that my CPU fan was not working properly. I didn't think much of it and tried to boot anyways to see if it still worked as normal, which it did. I've been getting this warning each time I've booted for the last couple of...

I recently bought the Be Quiet Pure Loop 280mm. I bought it due to its significant price difference compared to other AIO's in its size range. The cooler works perfectly well and is delivering great temperatures. I watched the Gamers Nexus video about AIO positioning within a case, and how the...

Happy Halloween everybody, got a question for y'all. In december of last year I built a PC that uses the CoolerMaster ML240L AIO. I was tinkering inside the case last night to manage cables a bit better when I noticed the blades on the radiator fans have some sort of moisture on them: It's...

Hello, I am building a new PC with i7 10700k Processor, I am confused between two AIOs, CoolerMaster ML240L v2 and Corsair H100i Platinum. CoolerMaster ML240L v2 is a budget AIO and newer improved pumped has installed in it Corsair H100i Platinum was released an almost a year ago, but i...

So I had someone over to build my PC for me yesterday, we tested everything, everything was good and working (minus the aio pump). He left, I took the PC to my room and plugged it in and went to bed. Now to the next day, I just tried to turn it on to test with my new monitor attached, and now...

I have an i7 8086k at stock settings and I have an Alphacool Eisbaer 360mm AIO cooler, I thought about overclocking to get more out of my CPU but I wanted to check temps first. I used MSI afterburner and ran cinebench r15 and my temps shot up too 100 right away then started to downclock, I then...

Hi I’ve started building my new pc setup and got the NZXT kraken x63, it has 2 rad fans and I only just found out that I’m supposed to plug them into the cpu_fan on the motherboard (I guess I wasn’t thorough enough with my research). Now the issue is, that I only have 1 cpu_fan output from the...

The GamersNexus video has me and a lot of other people worried. I was just wondering, how's this orientation? Not sure if I can flip it the other way, and I'd rather not if I can help it. If I understand it right, if the radiator is higher than the pump block I won't run into any issues, I...

Hey guys, I just got myself the 9900KF, so had to get new mobo as well, and decided on a new AIO as well while I was at it. Got the MSi Z390 MPG Edge AC, and the Deepcool Castle 360 v2. Still using my previous fans, 6x LL120, and am now using the included fan header hub that came with the...

Hi So, I am really falling in love with the nzxt kraken AIO cooler but I only have experience with the intel stock cooler so I have some researching to do. One question that I can't seem to get answered is, do I uninstall the fans at the front of my case and replace them with the radiator fans...

I've gotten some good feedback on this on Reddit, but I'd like to see what this community thinks as well. TLDR: Is it worth it to do push/pull on an AIO rad when not using high static pressure fans and the rad is the only case intake? OP: Ok, so: I'll be moving from a Dark Base 700 to a...
