I'm sitting idle at 70°C and reaching 85-92°C+ when playing on Marvel Rivals... I only noticed this problem recently since I haven't checked my temperatures in a while. My radiator fans and whole PC have been cleaned, plus I applied new thermal paste, so those shouldn't be the cause either... Is my AI-O gone and should I replace my cooler? I don’t get it. (Yes, it's a prebuilt unit, so no surprise, but I got it for free from a friend, and I switched the CPU to a 5900x.) Cooling setup: 240 AIO Deepcool Castle 240EX (from XIDAX, prebuilt), plus three back right fans.

It simply mentions the cables are connected incorrectly, but I’m not seeing that issue since my system shows all fans running. I think updating the BIOS might help, though it’s unlikely to fix it.
