Yesterday my pc randomly shutdown. I saw that the logo of my Corsair h80i was flickering yellow instead of a constant white light.
I thaught it was just a power interruption. About an hour later my pc shutdown again. After I restarded my pc looked up my temps at CorsairLink and SpeedFan:
CorsairLink 2:
77°C Gigabyte motherboard
All other temps were between 20-30°C
H80i pump was at max. same for the 2 fans
FanSpeed:
GPU: 26°C
Temp1: 27°C
Temp2: 71°C
Temp3: 66°C
HD1: 24°C
HD0: 30°C
Core: 66°C
These were just the temps I got when I stared up my pc without opening anything. If I start browsing temps will go up to 90°C. My pc will eventually shut down no matter what I'm doing but he will shut down earlier when I'm actually doing something om my pc.
Things I tried to fix the h80i:
- Downloaded the latest CorsairLink 2.7xx
- Changed the numbers 1 to 0 in regedit to fix CorsairLink in Windows 8.1
- updated h80i to a newer version (1.07 I beleive)
- Cleaned up the fans & case.
- Let the pc rest for 8 hours and restarted
I bought this pc at overclockers, they also build it for me. So I didn't try to do anything else than that since I don't understand much of all these components.
PC specs:
- Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 (dual uefi bios) motherboard
- Asus geforce gtf 780 oc edition
- Corsair H80i watercooler
- Corsair 550W Gold PSU
- 2x 4gb Elite Team dd3 memory
- Bitfenix Ronin gaming tower
- AMD FX-8 8370 (they overclocked it to 4.4GHz**)
- Samsung 240ggb ssd
- 2tb HDD
- windows 8.1
I didn't play any high demanding games like crysis the last few weeks, so I don't know how the cpu ever get that high. Nor did any change or even touch anything in the case.
I think there must be something wrong with my h80i watercooler. I've never had any problems with the pc, got it for about 5 months now.
I can't do anything on my pc atm, it will just shutdown after a few mins, or even seconds if I restart the pc right after it shut himself down.
Need help, I got no idea what I have to do :/
** My processor isn't overclocked anymore for quite some time now (a few months). I have no idea how that happend I just saw in the task manager that the max speed is now 3.5ghz instead of 4.4ghz. I don't know if I accidently did that or not, but that's a different "problem".
UPDATE:
1 of the pumps at the block part on the motherboard does vibrate, but the other one is just cold. I can hear the pump starting when I start up my pc. There is coming warm wind out of the fans from the h80i. The block that's on the motherboard also vibrates a bit.
After not using my pc for about 24 hours (except the first few hours I tried restarting the pc to fix the problem) I restarted it and ran it for 30 min without doing anything on it I got these results on SpeedFan:
GPU: 26 c
Temp1: 32 c
Temp2: 49-51 c
Temp3: 34
HD1: 30
HD0: 31
Core: 35
These temps are stable, I got these results after running my pc for 1 hour (without doing anything on the pc).
