Recently moved into a new apartment with my girlfriend and space is limited. I had a full ATX build and decided to go ITX for a smaller form factor.
I purchased H100i RGP platinum, ASrock fatal1ty ITX mb and Fractal core 500.
From my existing build I grabbed my ram, 1070, CX750M, ryzen 7, new mb, new cooler, new case and went to work.
Everything was installed to the T based on the ASrock manual as well as the H100i manual.
In the settings it does not matter what I select, I can toggle it all as a fan or a water pump at full speed it does not change the temps one bit.
I have also tied every fan header on the mb, there are 3. CPU_FAN1, CHA_FAN2/WP, CHA_FAN1/WP
I purchased the H100i from Best Buy brand new. What are the chances it’s defective? I also used the thermal paste that was pre applied. In a last attempt I decided to remove the pre applied thermal paste which I included pictures of that as well. As you can see it was definitely not the pastes fault.
The numbers in the picture correspond with the mb connector and what is attached.
HD_AUDIO01 > front io
CHA_FAN1/WP > chassis fan
PANEL1 > power, reset etc
USB 2.0 header > corsair icue USB cable
USB 3.1 gen1 header > front io
ATX_POWER1 > power
CHA_FAN2/WP > corsair pump tach cable
ATX12V_POWER > power
SATA3_1 > PNY SSD 500GB
For the record, I have taken the whole system apart and reassembled it. All connections are in and tight.
I’m going crazy over here ?
