Hi I barely know anything about computers and I recently bought a custom PC from iBuyPower. I've had it for about a week and everything was going fine and all of a sudden last night my fans were throttling and my PC turned off while playing Counter Strike. I didn't think much of it cause it was late at night. I played for 30 minutes the next day and it randomly shut off again. Now it can't stay on for more than 1-5 minutes. Bios has consistently read temps of 86-100 Celsius. I have a Avc k7127n cpu cooler (water cooling) and one of the tubes was really hot. My friend who knows PC's replaced the thermal paste on the CPU and we reattached everything. The tubes are not hot anymore but the PC is still shutting off. Please help

I don't know if this helps but right before I had problems I wiggled my PC mildy hard into the middle small frame in my new L desk.

Sounds like your pump isn't working. Or possibly, there is a hose that protrudes from the case and is being pinched somewhere? A flow restriction could do that.

Is there a clear reservoir that you can see the fluid in? When you start the computer do you see water moving in the reservoir?
