URGENT! NEED HELP! cpu overheating with xspc watercooling kit

Go to solution Solved by TheMastr13,

nah i cleaned it out throughly and when i filled the loop up it filled up fairly quick

did you make sure you dont have any air bubbles stuck anywhere?

ok so here is whats going on, ive had my watercooling kit for about six months now; so yesterday i decided to clean it becasuse i noticed that it was getting kinda hazey. so i broke it down and put it back together and now today my cpu is overheating its getting up to 50 degrees celcius. i thought maybe i didnt put the thermal paste on right. so i checked that and it seems as though there was a big spot in the middle of the cpu that isnt being covered by the thermal paste so i reapplied it and its still overheating.

 

i have an amd fx 9590 and and a xspc d5 rx 270 photon watercooling kit combo. plz any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. i have no idea whats going on and i need my pc for school.

make sure you dont have any restrictions in the loop, aka clogs

you've got air trapped in the radiator and/or the water block.

 

got a picture of your layout? would help.

I've noticed on my setup that I'l get bubbles coming out for a few days. 

 

Also your numbers don't seem that bad at all.

When you broke down the water cooling system, DID YOU PROPERLY clean the loop?

 

USE mayhems blitz! That will get it clean alright!
