Cpu spike up to 100 then dies.

[JointedFish]

Hi

So when i started my computer this morning i noticed my fans was spinning up crazy fast and i look at my temps. My CPU spikes up to hundred after a minut and shuts down. i managed to look at task manager and there was nothing. I comfim the temps in bios and i open up the case at its still hot after shutdown. 
My next thing would be to check the AIO cooler, its the Kraken x62 and the fans was going and what not. Could the pump be bad only after 7-8 months of use, since this hasn't happen before? 
Im took off the aio and shook it a small dose and remounted it. 

 

And now it seems to be running good, tho i did set the clocks back to stock and gonna up the back up again and no problem. 

I wondering if there was a mounting error, but that would be rater strange since its been on there for months.

 

Also, i have the R5 1600

If its spiking up to 100 on boot up with an AIO then the problem is NOT that you were hacked as you have been miss informed by @Aldog360 but that your pump is likely dead. if you can get into your BIOS, does it read any speed from the pump? Or CAM if you can get into windows?

Yeah, i check in the bios when it was overheating and it was around 2200 and the fans was spinning. Which i though was strange. Now it still says the same in cam, and i can change it like you should be able to do.

ok, so if the pump is registering RPMs and everything and its running good now after unmounting and shaking it around, its possible you may have had an air bubble trapped in your pump and shaking it up may have taken it out. If its running good now with proper temps, I wouldnt worry about it to much. If it does it again, I would definitely open a support case with NZXT about it.

Maybe it isn't tightened down enought, I had the problem with my h100iv2 that it wasn't tight enought so the thermal paste didn't make contact

Mounting error or the pump was acting up or had a small clog you might have knocked loose.

So anyone looking for this will most likely find it. 

The problem happend again this morning too when i started the computer, and ive sent for a service order, and ill will be opening up a case to NZXT. (im not bad a mounting coolers)

 

TLDR . There is most likely an air bubble of sorts in the AIO Kraken X62 after 8 months of use that prevents the liquid from looping around that makes the cooling solution ineffective.

The pumps on aios are touchy and can die with in months.
