CPU cooler problems

Recently, I was having problems with my old PSU(Corsair CX600M), I couldn't play games with my GTX 970 whenever it was in use. So, I got a brand new CoolerMaster R750M and that problem stopped. After doing the stress test, I noticed something was weird my computer was slowing down a lot! I checked my temps and my CPU was at 100 degrees celsius. So I turned my Pc on again and saw my temps were around 65 degrees, and within 6 minute of watching videos on Youtube it was at 100 degrees again. I have a Corsair H100i GTX and the power leads going from the pump aren't working, also the led on the pump isn't turning on anymore. I got the fans by plugging them in to a fan hub at the back of my case. My theory is that the pump is not working. Any help would be appreciated

Does sound like a dead pump unit.

Have you tried switching which header its powered from?

Yes, it wasn't working in the CPU FAN header, so I tried the SYS FAN header and it wasn't working there either. The weird thing this started right after I installed my new PSU.

Did that come with my PSU? Sorry for the stupid question.

No.  It's a cheap adapter that you can get.  Unless you have some test leads to temporarily test the pump with a 12v source of some kind.

Laws only govern the honest.
