I have always had an idle temperature of around 35~C with this watercooler, and I have had it for about 2 years now and suddenly I am getting idles of 72C which is strange.
Even stranger is that the fan is blowing out air that is cool like as if it is still 35C.
I went into my case and the fan is pushing a lot of air as usual, the radiator is free of dust and the 3 pin power connector to the motherboard is still plugged in correctly. I also tightened the screws on the actual watercooler unit but they are okay too.
I have 3 fans including the watercooler one blowing air out and 2 ones blowing air in from the side of the case, so there is defiantly good airflow. For reference my SSD is about 25C.

Any idea on why this is happening?
Its gotten worse now, its now like 80-5C idle
EDIT: Didn't mean the untick the not a discussion box This thread is for a solution
