Hey everyone, I found the build at pcpartpicker for Windows 11, 64bit BIOS info: SMBIOSBIOSVersion F31, made by American Megatrends International. The issue is that after startup, the fans run at full speed for a while, then the PC crashes after about 30 seconds. When it starts again, fans don’t spin up and the system works fine. During the second boot, CPU temps spike to 80-90°C, but only to around 50°C on the second time. I’m trying to fix this crash and temperature problem—any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks!

It seems the AIO might be failing due to a pump issue, getting stuck during initial startup and releasing after restarting. Another possibility is it runs memory training each time, so updating the BIOS could help.

It seems the system can start up, show a high temperature reading, and then return to normal after restart. Likely the cooling issue was resolved by checking the pump connection on the motherboard.

I can open Windows and launch Gigabyte Control Center to view fan speeds and temperatures in Smart Fan. However, I don’t see any details about the AIO pump. It’s unclear if the crash is caused by overheating. There may be logs available in Windows or BIOS that explain why the system stopped.

If logs exist, review the Event Viewer under the System section, filtering for critical errors. Also, examine PWM speeds in HWinfo64 and restrict sensor checks to when launching the program.
