Just swapped out the H100i for a brand new unit. This yielded no change in the temperatures. It must be the chip, man that sucks; especially since I'm beyond my 30 days of newegg returns.

Aida64 Temps are more promising, but idle temps remain way too high. What can I do to make sure the H100i is working properly? The fans are spinning and corsair link says the pump is running.

Corsair Link makes it look like it's running.

Ok so in my new build I have a 4690k that I've returned to stock overclocking settings in an attempt to reduce temperatures. It's cooled by a Corsair H100i and I've redone the thermal compound application three times now in attempts to lower temperatures. At idle all cores run about 40C which I know isn't terrible but also not desirable. The problem is when I run prime 95 in small FFT, the temperatures instantly rise to 95-100C on all cores. On blend the temperatures are at 85C. The H100i fans are connected to mobo fan headers 2 and 4 in pwm mode and I believe all the pump connections to be correct. Please Help =(
