So I had heating problems before. I actually posted here about it a while back and I was told that my pump for my radiator was broken. That would make sense, I had a 2-year-old H115i and I was getting 90+ degrees C on just League of Legends, super easy to run game, and 60 degrees C idle, room temp is 25 degrees C.

 

So I now recently replaced my old H115i with a H115i Platinum. When I run my machine, everything is fine anywhere from 20 seconds to 2 minutes, then things start to all apart. So on startup, it immediately leads me to UEFI saying that I have a temperature problem. When I check in BIOS, my CPU temp 89 degrees C and keep in mind I'm not playing or doing anything, this is literally just on startup. Then, after, my PC proceeds to instantly shut down without warning. So far, now, I have only been able to make it into BIOS once (I have to turn my monitor on/off every time I start up for some reason which never happened before, because of this, it takes a while to get into BIOS), but I have attempted around 5 times and 4 of those 5 times my computer immediately shut off before I could even make it to BIOS. I don't know why the computer is shutting off, either I have a short on my motherboard or the temperature perhaps?

 

Fan speed on startup is very slow and then rapidly picks up as if it knows my CPU is very hot.

 

I have a few guesses now:

  • Faulty CPU (but I doubt it otherwise I'm pretty sure the computer wouldn't even startup)
  • Faulty setup for new H115i
  • Motherboard shortage to explain the sudden shut downs, not sure how this would happen though, I was working on floor, barefeet, with antistatic wristband connected to grounding prong on wall outlet

 

Anyways, I'm not sure what to do now.
