I think my h100 is dying

My idle temps over the last 3 months have risen dramatically when I first got this on 10/3/2011 my idle temps were 36c with loads around 75c now my idles are around 50c with loads peaking over 80c with no voltage or clock settings changed since that time.

 

The fans aren't ramping up anymore for one they are staying at constant speeds for each setting the performance mode is way to loud for idle use and normal and quiet modes wont ramp when I throw a load at it. Also my pump is making some pretty interesting whining noises and almost like low coolant gurgle that I can hear when its on low which could always be there but where the fans don't ramp anymore it just seems strange sounds

2008-2057or 2109 rpm fan control however is turned off. Radiator is slightly dirty hasn't been cleaned since January probably although fairly clean though all my air inlets have filters on them so its a very fine dust. I'll grab some compressed air tomorrow and clean it I have no air in any of my paintball tanks atm.

while this doesnt explain why your fans arent spinning up,its prudent to check the obvious possibilities first.

you mentioned a fan controller,were you using this for the pump? to me it appears so or does it control your fans?

I meant the internal fan controller I got that working again I have one that's a few lots off from the faulty units in 2011 I did the firmware reset and got the H100s fan controller working again idle temps are 45-40-45-40 for each core again respectively and loads are 80-75-78-73 respectively so once I clean it again I should be back in the clear.

 

Stupid me I forgot about the firmware reset
