SUMMARY
Corsair Hydro H115i - CPU_Fan error and rising temps in BIOS > I make sure everything is plugged in and try alternate ports.
I uninstall it and take it to the store for warranty.
a week later I install my old cooling system a Corsair Hydro H110i and get the same CPU_FAN error and rising temperatures in bios but it stays at 88C
I boot windows, it's stable, but struggling.
Long Version
So i bought a Corsair Hydro H115i closed loop watercooling system for my pc about 6 months ago, i installed it and it worked flawlessly up until a week ago when i started my pc and got CPU_FAN error as well as rapidly rising temps in the bios (never letting it go past 80c before i turned it off)
I plugged it into alternate fan ports, CPU_Opt, CPU_OV aswell as a different power slot and made sure everything was plugged in correctly and got the same result. I assumed the worst; the pump had died.
so i uninstalled the cooling system and took the train to "NetonNet" the electronics store where i bought it to try to use the warranty. i left the cooling system there for their judgement and was told they'd message in a few days.
a week later i got curious and dug up my previous cooling system, a Corsair Hydro H110i which had started giving me high temps but still worked OK when i last uninstalled it. i installed it in my pc, and got CPU_Fan error once again with rising temps i the bios, this time however i let the temperature climb higher and it stayed at a stable 88 C
I booted up windows to see how it would perform, fans got really loud and corsair link showed temps of about 95 - 99 c but it didn't crash or anything. The backside of the motherboard to where the CPU is installed is warm enough that i get burned if i put my finger on it for more than a second or two
Started it up a second time now and installed core temp, it seams my CPU temperature stays the same 95-100 c regardless of CPU load, however it seams to be compensating by slowing down.
i use arctic silver 5 and it is applied correctly.
My specs are
Motherboard: ASUS Z97-PRO [WI-FI ac]
GPU: EVGA Geforce GTX 980
CPU: Intel core i7 4790k
Powersupply: EVGA supernova 750 G2
Cooling: Corsair Hydro H115i alternatively Corsair Hydro H110i
