Hello forum,
Specs:
CASE: NZXT S340
MOBO: MSI Z170A M5 Gaming
CPU: intel i7-6700K
CPU FAN: Corsair h100i v2
GPU: MSI GTx 1070 Gaming X
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws 3200 mhz 2 x 8 GB
PSU: Corsair CX650M
I recently bought these components and built my pc lsat night. Everything seemed to be working fine, but at first boot and going into the BIOS, I noticed the CPU temp started at 50 degrees Celsius and continued to steadily increase to 100 degrees Celsius.
I proceded to install windows and my drivers to see if that would do the trick, still nothing.
I went back into the BIOS and checked the system board to see what was connected and disconnected. The BIOS stated that the CPU_FAN1 & CPU_FAN2 were both disconnected. However, I have my fans connected to CPU_FAN1. I feel like this is the issue but am unsure.
I made sure the backplate for the CPU was tightened securely and that the CORSAIR h100i v2 was placed securely on the CPU but still nothing. I put a decent amount of THERMAL PASTE, which is too much? Also, the thermal paste I applied was used in my brothers build a month ago, is that alright?
So, how do I fix this issue with my water cooler?
Thanks for your help in advance everyone.
UPDATE: I tried moving the fan controller cord ( initally plugged into CPU_FAN1) into the other CPU headers and SYS headers, still nothing. They aren't being detected in the BIOS.
I am using the Board explorer on the MSI click BIOS 5.
