Yeah it looks like the AIO is perfectly fine. I got MSI's b450 tomahawk max.

The rad seems pretty much dust-free. After removing the front glass and the mesh the temps got a couple of degrees better. This is really strange. Please help meeee ;_;

My rad is in the front of the case (570x) and the (included) fans are pulling air through the rad as it was recommended to do. I also have 3 sp120 fans as exhausts. Two up top and one in the back. Hope this info helps at all.

To all of you: the block was seated ok apparentally. It didn't wobble and the screws were tight. I took the block away, cleaned the paste, applied new paste and re-seated the cooler. Still same results. nothing changed.

Okay, so, I run it with a bit lower clock (-100MHz) and lowered the lotage by HALF A VOLT and the results may shock you: There just HAS to be something wrong. Shouldn't the liquid heat up WAAY more? Could it be the mounting or what the hell is going on? EDIT: Just noticed that the power consumption is pretty much the same even after i lowered the voltage AND clocks? honestly what is going on??

That was just fanspeed at fixed 100%. It seems to give a bit more rpm than extreme Ye ofc, but still that seems to be way too hot And tmy temps were like 2 mins after launching prime95 so the loop didn't even heat up lol That's a fair point, too. Really didn't think about that before. The "Temp" iCUE shows? at idle it shows 31.7 degrees (has been idling for multiple hours). And yes, i'll lower the voltage in a min. I'll give new temps when i've lowered the voltage! that sure is strange. I'd imagine 2 more cores (with higher voltage) would be waaay hotter. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR REPLIES! I am a newb on these forums and did not know that the notifs come only when i'm over here. I thought i'd get an e-mail from notifs I'm just silly.

Oh and as a sidenote: the voltage is so high because i tried to run the cpu at 4.5 GHz but i guess the heat output was just way too big

I think you guys can already see my problem over here. I believe h150i should do a bit better at 150W oh heat output than this. According to an anandtech's review, h150i managed to cool a 340W chip with better results (https://www.anandtech.com/show/13219/the-corsair-h150i-pro-rgb-aio-cooler-review/4 scroll down a bit and select the 340 watts instead of 60). So what i am doing wrong over here? I really have no clue what the heck is going on.
