Question Help with new H100. Idle temps of 70°

[vandyke.will]

I recently bought a new H100 for my i5 9400f CPU. Before installation I had the Intel heat sync fan and 1 system fan and idled around 30 degrees c. Now I have installed the radiator and the pump my idle temp is way above normal.

Some things to note are the fans work but i don't register any cpu fan on MSI dragon centre or real temp, no LED. I've changed SATA chains twice to see if one was faulty(I have no idea to check if the pump is working). Is my pump broken or have I got an installation problem?

Either you didn't remove the plastic on the H100 heatplate or it's not making enough contact to the chip

The plastic was removed cause the thermal paste was on the cpu. How tight should the thumb screws be? If not should I be feeling the coolant move through the tubes?

1)Take a pic of the interior of the PC so we can see the radiator and the chassis fans. Post it through imgur.com, or something similar.
2)Go into the motherboard's bios. From there, find the motherboard header controls for whichever header the pump is plugged into, and change it to PWM Mode.
3)Are you using Corsair iCUE? You're pretty much forced to use it.

I never got thr chance to install the software cause my CPU got to 95. Dumb question how do I enter bios

CPU fan is directly below radiator fan and Sys2 fan is to the right of the ram. Sys 1 is plugged in to the left

A tad too close. We can't see the entirety of the interior.

Bios: power on, and repeatedly press F2/Del.

Radiator is above its late and didn't have time to shift. I opened up bios and cpu fan was at 0rpm and pwn mode already

there is only 1 cable from the photo, there should be another micro USB for it to work

There is no microusb in the instructions
