Question Cpu idling at 90 C after installing new aio

[KileBillyV]

I just installed a new arctic liquid freezer ii 360 mm a rgb AIO and started it up and my temps are consistent 90 C in bios. I don’t know much about building pc’s so Im sure i could’ve done something stupid wrong. First time applying thermal paste I think I might’ve put way too much paste. first time I put the pump on and I took it off after seeing temps and the paste wasn’t even smeared at all. Second time I just put it back on after spreading it around and temps are still the same. I plugged the aio into AIO_PUMP and I plugged the other wire coming from the pump to one coming from the radiator. Not sure if it matters how the tubes are routed.

that rpm is too low, i do have artic freezer II aio aswell and lowest it can go is 3000rpm (which is low quiet rpm btw)
so you might want to reconfigure your aio pump fan profile

You need to list all the parts used but sounds like your not using the proper mounting hardware since the paste was not smeared.

How do I do that?

I followed the YouTube installation video from the manufacturer but yeah i think I did something wrong, even tho i smeared it before I put it back on would it still be incorrect?
