CPU suddenly overheating

[Bike_Insurance]

Hi all,

 

Yesterday evening I was gaming and suddenly my pc slowed down real quick and I couldnt perform any actions anymore so I decided to restart my pc. During the restart after the gigabyte logo the pc shutdown itself so I couldnt get past the gigabyte logo screen. After the shutdown i went into the bios I saw my cpu clocking itself to 0.2ghz and it had a temp of 91c. I have no clue what the cause of all this is. Have been using this machine for 8 months without any hitch. Als the fans on the radiator are spinning and in the bios it shows 0rpm for the cpu fan. And my cpu is set to base clock speed without any OC. Any help is greatly appreciated

 

Specs:

I7 4790k

Corsair h100i (not the v2)

16gb ram

Msi GTX 1080

Gigabyte B85 HD3

 

Things I have tried:

Put the cpu fan cable coming out of the cooling block to a system fan header.

Tried to reseat my cooling block on the cpu.

 

(Sorry for any mistakes in the spelling. English is not my first language.)

Dead pump on AIO would be my guess.

Fans may be spinning, but if the pump aint pumping then the spinning fans wont do anything, as the heat wont be removed from the cpu.

If you have the pump connected to cpu fan header and it shows 0rpm, then the pump is dead.

Anyway to to check this? Like I heard you could check this by feeling or hearing but I couldnt find the location of the pump.

the pump should be located on the cpu block. But if you cant hear water flowing around in your computer or any pump whine then the pump is gone.

it should be located on here:

Yeah contact Corsair support and RMA that sucker as fast as you can, the sooner you contact them the better.

All Asetek pumps...my Fractal Design S36 pump died within a year too.  If it dies outside of warranty (5 years) I'm not going to bother with liquid cooling unless I go the expensive/HQ route.
