[SOLVED] Installed AIO cooler, now my display not showing

[ukyo28]

Hi , so recently i upgraded my cpu cooler from air to AIO cooler. Now my display not showing.

Before i did change it, my pc is working fine.

My mobo is TUF b460-m plus (wifi)

The aio i used is Chione e2-120 lite aio liquid cooler gamdias.

I followed the manual but the result is no display/no signal on my monitor

Pls help thank you

full system spec? include brand and model of the psu

If nothing else was really done in the process, that can happen when the cooler is over-tightened.
All I could suggest is remounting the cooler, but go a little easier on it.

Dram lighting orange. Tried to clean the rams and inserted back in, still in orange 💔

Time to examine the motherboard socket pins for any 'out of placers'.

Yes i tried. Also orange light on dram

How do i check that?

You take the cpu out, get a magnifying glass or something similar, and check the pins. They should all be leaning in a uniform pattern.

I removed the AIO and return my old air cooler. It is working..

For the meantime i'll stick to my air cooler.



Im not sure what is the issue happened when installing the AIO..

If installing the air coolers fixes it, either:
A)the AIO/CLC is being over-tightened.
B)nothing is plugged into CPU_FAN header. Some boards won't POST if there's nothing detected in that header.
C)IF the cooler's fan or pump is plugged into CPU_FAN, they're not being detected. The plug is broken, or has a short.

I have tried again and installed the AIO, it is now working.

My problem now is i can only use 1 ram. If i try dual channel, Q led dram light is on solid orange. Wont go through the boot up...

And there's none of this occurring when the air cooler is installed, right? If so, cooler mounting pressure is suspect. Too much pressure in one area disabling a channel.

Hey man. thank you very much. this solved my problem, I loosened the screws on the cpu cooler and now the dual channel ram is working like magic!


Thank you again. this is solved.
