My CPU is overheating after changing the fans on my radiator, it is my first build and I don't know much, can anyone help me?
 
What did you change and why?

I might suspect that your reinstallation of the pump block was faulty.
Did you clean and use new paste?
Did you screw down the pump evenly, a bit at a time in a crosswise pattern?

At idle, I expect to see 10-15c. over ambient temperatures.

What was the purpose in changing out the radiator fans?
Are the radiator fans now working?
Are they moving air through the radiator?
Dangle a tissue to see the direction of the airflow.

They are an intake at the front of my case and yes the fans move air through, I think something broke when I was moving all those parts to install the fans since I did not have any thermal paste on hand right now
