ML240L CPU too hot

I just set up my first build and it’s getting too hot. Im using an ML240L on an Asrock z390pro4. It’ll idle around 70 and hit 110 before I shut it down or it does itself. I applied a pea of thermal paste and made sure the plastic isn’t on the mount.

I don’t think the pump is on, anyone have any similar issues/fixes?

Connections:

Pump-> CHA_FAN/WP

Pump-> RGB stuff -> CP1_FAN1

You have the RGB header plugged into the CPU fan header? I don't think that's how it works... Take that out and leave the pump header plugged in. Feel the block/tubes, are they vibrating? Also you didn't say what CPU you have.

I have an i5 9600k. They don’t feel like they’re vibrating. I have the one that comes from the two fans plugged into CPU_FAN1

you have the radiator fans plugged into cpu_fan1 funny af, read the motherboard manual if you're not sure.

It only has the cpu fan 1, which I have the pump plugged into and the other one into cha_fan 2/wp. 

I looked in the manuel, but it only says to plug fans there and to match certain wires

It’s still hovering around 85 when idle 

I feel like the pump must be jacked up, I’ve tried pretty much all ports and different applications of thermal paste. 

We have shitty postal service here, I wouldn’t be surprised if it got jacked up in the ride here hahaha
