I recently installed my cooler master 240l rgb liquid cooler. I had a hyper evo 212 led previously. My temps are very high, 40’s during idle and up to mid 70’s during gaming. I just installed this cooler and I don’t know what’s going on. May somone please help me? Thanks in advance!

What cpu are you cooling and what were your temps before with the 212 Evo?

What rpm are you running your pump and fans at? Have you tried raising the rpm?

If you haven't already, you should try reseating the cooler and making sure that it's evenly mounted. Tighten the screws evenly in an X-pattern as opposed to one side before the other.

Have you set your AIO fans to responded to cpu temps? It looks like nothing is plugged into your cpu fan header. If the fans are plugged into the sys_fan headers, they're probably responding to internal case temps instead of your cpu.

If it has a backplate check if it's correctly installed, use the right amount of compound

I plugged the aio into the pump header and the fans in the cpu header.

Are you sure? It shows 0 rpm on the fan header in the photo.

Is this better?

It's better than 0rpm although I didn't see how it was configured before. What are your load temps now?
