need desperate help H100i

[Zet]

so everything have been working fine up until today,

 

we had some poweroutages ( not so unusual this time of year ) and when i went to boot it up i was greeted by a BSOD so i went into bios and saw temp was around 80 and i figure that cant be right so i reset  to default in bios and it booted up i checked realtemp and everything was fine,

 

but then a few hours later same thing happen and now i cant even get into windows,

 

also the LED that always been glowing white is red all of the sudden,

 

i've tried pretty much all i can think of, doublecheck  all connectors making sure they're connected properly, all fans are spinning

Sounds like the pump died. With no water flow the temps will go high.

When it reaches an to high temp the LED on the CPU cooler (which is also your pump) Will be red yes  

 

Try and check if you can hear the pump.

Try not boot up your PC that many times too, if it doesn't having any cooling due to a dead cooler, you could kill your CPU

If you have a long screwdriver you can isolate the sound by holding the tip against the block and the other end against your ear.

You should hear a very audible humming/pumping sound.

Wouldn't that mean the motherboard is also dead?

Its not so much the power outage killing stuff. Its the return of power that will do that most of the times

That and moving components tend to die when shut off and restarted. Not so much when they are on.

 

The UPS will be a 2-fold protection: 1. It allows the computer to shutoff in a normal way. 2. A good UPS will also filter and stop high inrush currents/voltages.
