Edit out profanity, rma your CPU cooler sounds like your pump has died

I'd say your pump....probably doesn't.

Usually that's what happens when the pump goes bad. I had the same thing happen to me a while back when I tried making my own custom water cooling loop. One day it was fine. Next day it was rebooting due to overheating.

Supahos :

sorry, aand what do i do about a bad pump? do i return it and get a new one?

mdd1963 · Jul 23, 2017

YOu will have to take that up with Corsair....

Not sure how liberal their return/replacement policies are....

Personally, I'd ditch the whole affair and get a Noctua NH-D15.....

Pretty clearly said to rma your cooler.

This is why I won't put water coolers in builds I make for others... Invisible points of failure stink. I'd also suspect 10 or more pumps will fail before a fan
