Hello guys, I just finished building my new computer and after booting it for the first time I noticed that the CPU's temperature would continue to rise until it reached 75C at which point the pc would shut down.At first, I thought this was a TP issue but I replaced the old one with a new one and reapplied multiple times but nothing.I also get the EZ Debug LED indicator above the CPU label on the mobo.I also checked the CPU'S Power Supply connectors on the mobo and they were ok and so were the CPU's pins and the socket.Is my cooling system broken or what?

 

-Another issue that came up is that after attempting to update the mobo's bios via M.Flash, the pc shut down due to high temps and after that, I cannot reach the BIOS(can not even get a video signal). I tried short-circuiting the mobo via the 2-pins that the manual suggested & removing the battery but nothing.

 

I've been trying all day to fix those 2 issues but with no success.If you have any last propositions before i take it to a professional, please let me know.Thank you in advance.

 

Below you can find my specs:

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1800X

Mobo: MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon

RAM: 2x8GB G.SkillZ

Cooling:  NZXT Kraken x62

GPU: 1080 Ti (KFA2)

PSU: Seasonic 750W

SSD: Corsair 480GB

I think the x62 cooler IIRC has the pump built into the CPU block, so there should be a little power connector for that on the block. Make sure that is plugged in, otherwise the liquid would not circulate, and would overheat. As for the BIOS issue, try to keep the little battery in the motherboard while jumping the CMOS pins. Make sure to hold for about 10 seconds.

Hi and thanks for helping me out :) . That would make sense since i can only hear water circulating from inside the block and not the tubes.However,i have connected the cooler's usb cable to the mobo's USB 2.0 slot and it's power connector to the CPU_FAN Header (and the rest of the connectors as shown in the manuals(e.g: sata connector,fans etc.)).But still no luck with the temps or the mobo LED.

 

As for the BIOS,that one i've already tried but it did not work sadly.Do you know any other tricks that might help?

Once again thanks for commenting!
