I recently installed the cm 120 all-in-one cooler and noticed that when my PC boots, it restarts several times before starting. I've tried adjusting the DRAM frequency and XMP settings, but nothing worked. A red light appears next to my RAM before each reboot, and I'm seeking assistance. Also, when I unplug it, overclocking fails; my motherboard is an ASUS Sabertooth X58.

Yes, you removed the plastic film from the base of the pump/water block prior to mounting.

Does it refer to the one that was reporting about the copper component attached to the CPU?

I've noticed that using one of my watercolour fans seems to trigger an issue, while the other works without problems. I tried switching ports and didn't get any better results. Do you have any suggestions?

I would simply connect directly to the power source with either a Molex or Sata fan cable adapter.
