h100i not cooling

What motherboard? Sometumes on some boards the capacitors are too close to the socket and interfere with proper mounting. Also the backplate notches must face the right way or it also causes uneven mounting.

 

To also rule out a software glitch pleas check the temps in the bios for 5 minutes.

Please let us know :)

Good luck.

I have a ASUS MAXIMUS VI Impact, and I'm not overclocking.

 

I compared the bios temperature with the corsair link monitoring, and is the same.

 

The backplate seem good placed. How can I test if the bump is working??

 

How is the noise produced by the bump??

The Impact board is very thin. It even comes with some washers for mounting the backplate. Did you use them for your install? Some people using Mini ITX boards like myself, encountered issues due to the board being too thin. This caused the backplate to fit too loose. I ended up having to install some washers and my temps went down. Here is a video I made on the subject. Other causes are people installing the backplate incorrectly.
