Worried about your CPU temperatures and AIO cooler performance?
Worried about your CPU temperatures and AIO cooler performance?
Hi! I've been using my PC for roughly a decade now, but I've noticed some concerns about the cooling system. When running demanding games or doing rendering tasks with Adobe Premiere, the CPU temperature LED lights up on the motherboard. I see that certain cores hit around 100°C. I'm considering switching to a more efficient cooler, though I'm still getting familiar with AIO options. Could you share some advice? I'm fairly new to this setup and would really appreciate your help.
Thanks a lot!

Your temperatures are off, the airflow unit isn’t functioning properly—possibly due to a failed pump or a clogged filter. Try to determine if you can hear the pump operating despite other issues. Verify your BIOS settings ensure the pump is connected via the correct header on the motherboard. It could simply have stopped working, or there might be a problem with contact between the CPU and the unit, though without visible damage it’s hard to pinpoint the exact cause if it worked before.
I investigated closely and found an error in connecting the AIO pump to a case fan connector. With minor tweaks, the issue resolved immediately. A misstep on my part.
Minor error detected, but it would have worked better with the case fan header at the right speed.
