What happens is the computer turns on, sometimes it posts sometimes it doesn't post. Sometimes if i am lucky i make it to the bios screen or to the windows installation screen.

But it always turns off. Always.

Now the H100i is used off of ebay, i believe it might not be working since the fans connected to it do not spin when on. Everything is connected Sata power and usb connector. I believe the CPU might be overheating. I have asked on reddit and they said maybe my psu but i know it isn't i have had it work in my system.

I know everything works pretty much it just turns off randomly during the posting period

Will try with the stock cooler later.
