When I launch a game, Steam, Uplay, Origin (any game launcher other than Battle.net), the game will “launch”, the screen will go black, the monitor will just display a black screen with NO sounds of the game and will lock me in so I can’t ctrl-alt-delete out or use any buttons. I can only get out by hard restarting and rebooting. I am running Windows 10, with a 780 Ti. Whenever I install DX 11, it will spazz out and give me an error message, but will then continue with the install, not sure if that is relevant. Do I have to reinstall windows, or is there a better way to fix this?

My flow rate is pretty good. I cleaned the whole system about a month ago to see if anything was gunked up, and I couldn't find anything in the blocks. I also have the 1150 jet installed in the block as well.

I do have the inlet and outlet in the right configuration. And if those are reasonable temps for this set up, then I guess I'm okay, but watching other liquid cooling videos and looking at others temps, mine just seem high for having a 240 and a 360 for relitively low wattage parts. Doesn't the 780ti kick a lot of heat into the loop? Cause I only have the CPU and MOSFET's in my loop, so the temps just seemed high to me. If I had my GPU in as well, then it would make sense.

The pump is already maxed at a step of 5, or 4800 rpm, since it is a vario. And that's what I was thinking, but I can't figure out what is causing the problem.

I have been liquid cooling my computer for a while now (several months) and I’ve noticed that my temps seem to be somewhat higher than I expected. I’m currently running my 4770k @ 4.2 with 1.28 volts. I get an idle of about 32 C and under load with RealBench, I get 63 -65 C with an ambient of 21 C. I have an EK Supremacy block and I’m also cooling my MOSFET’s with the Maximus VI Formula’s CrossChill block. Currently, Mayhems X1 Red is in the loop but previously I had EK EVO clear coolant in. I have a CM Storm Stryker with a Black Ice SR2 MP 360 (Push/Pull) mounted vertically in the front and an EK CoolStream 240 (Push) mounted horizontally in the top with fans running at 700 rpm (Corsair SP120 HPE’s) with an EK D5 pump. Maybe I’m just expecting lower temps, but I feel that they are higher than they should be for this setup. Any advice?
