Processing speeds are excessively high while the AIO fails to dissipate heat.
I've been having some trouble with my CPU temps. Everytime I play a game or hit it with a load, the CPU temps jump up to 70C and it seems like the AIO is not outputting any heat. Currently I have a i7-10700k OC and its attached to a Lian Le Galahad 360 AIO. I feel like a 360 AIO should be plenty of cooling for my CPU but whenever I put my hand near the AIO, there's barely any heat coming out. And when I go to touch one of the tubes, they are crazy hot. Even when fans are at a 100% nothing changes. Also the heat seems to be coming out of the top of the radiator/near the pipes (I have the AIO mounted vertically with the pipes at the top). The AIO doesn't seem to be using the bottom half of the radiator because I feel no heat coming out there. I'm not sure if this is even a problem but I feel like my CPU temps are way to high especially with the AIO I have.
I have my pump plugged into the AIO pump header on my motherboard and yes, the fans are pushing in the same direction If there is air trapped, how can I fix that? My cpu_opt header is not connected to anything. However, I don't think this is the problem since all my fan header have the same fan curves
I wasn't aware your motherboard had a pump header beyond CPU_Opt. If air was trapped, Corsair suggests gently tilting the PC forward and backward to help move bubbles through the cooler. The idea is to guide them out of the pump chamber, possibly adjusting hoses for better airflow. I think this should resolve the issue on its own now—do you notice the temperatures from the screen cap, or is it mainly seen in Cinebench?
