i have a i7 4790k CPu with a corsair h100gtx water cooler and my cpu at idle is at 45C as im typing this right now
on chrome, but as soon as i start up a game on steam, playing games mostly like PUBG or pretty much any game, the Corsair h100 cooling fans RUN at a very loud 100% speed, and my cpu sits at 90-100 the whole time as im playing almost immediately after starting the game... also my H100Gtx Cooler isnt properly installed on windows 10 or it cannot find the driver online so im jus assuming it works since those fans on it get really loud i hate it.. what could i do to fix or help make it slightly better??? thanks btw for any help given
 
Solution
check the tubes, is one hot and the other cool? I suspect the pump is not working but it can be difficult to tell. Can you hear it if you put your ear near it (its in the CPU block part).

Have you checked to make sure the pump block is attached to your CPU properly? All connections plugged into the correct spots etc?
