Icedhaze Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hey guys, I have a problem with my newly bought H80i GT. It shows me a very high cpu and motherboard temperature and also does not detect the H80i GT Cooler Fan and GeForce GTX 980 Ti Fan in Corsair Link. Every cable is correctly connected. I checked it at least three times with a friend. The air that comes out from the fans is COLD!!! OS: Windows 10 If you need any other information please just ask. Thanks for your support. Just look at the pics below and you´ll see my problem. http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160125/fa9exwly.jpg http://fs5.directupload.net/images/160125/zrwv5x4k.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nichrome Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi Either CPU block is not making enough contact, or you got faulty unit. Try to tighten screws little bit. And check if either of pipes is hot (if 1 is and 2 is not, it's faulty unit). Is everything properly connected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Either CPU block is not making enough contact, or you got faulty unit. Try to tighten screws little bit. No, the CPU to Cooler contact is probably OK. The issue is the H80iGT Cooler Temp being 68.8°C which could be caused either by the pump not circulating the coolant or the fans not cooling the radiator. How hot is the radiator? Are the fans spinning? The H80iGT Cooler Fan speed should be at least 800 RPM, check the fan connections. Try swapping them around. The 100.0°C reported for MSI Motherboard Temp 3 is probably incorrect, CL often does this, see http://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=787963 You need to add you PC Specs to your profile as this will make it easier for other members to help you. The images are way too big and all that is needed is as below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Greybeard Posted January 26, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted January 26, 2016 It's worth to double check if you have a full contact between the CPU and CPU block, I'd simply reseat the pump just to be sure. Pump seems to be working according to C link, but I'd still check that in your BIOS and see if your pump is indeed running. So like what red-ray has mentioned, no pump, no liquid circulation that equals to high CPU temp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The H80iGT reports a fan speed to the CPU_FAN header, so you can't check the pump speed in the BIOS. So do the H100iGTX + H110iGTX. The H110iGT + H100i + H80i do report the pump speed though! In general Asetek report a fan speed and CoolIT report the pump speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fault, that's actually right, H80i GT does not report pump speed in BIOS but rather fan speed. Though I'd still recommend re-seating the pump to make sure its not a contact issue.

I disagree and do not think the reseating is needed as if there was a poor contact there is no way the H80iGT Cooler would be 68.8°C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icedhaze Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 First of all, thanks for all the replies. I try to answer all your questions. 1. Both pipes are cold and there are no vibrations. 2. Currently the pump is making weird sounds, so I think it is actually a defect pump. I already contacted the shop where I bought it and they will send me a replacement. 3. Look at my specs now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
