Troubleshooting

Pump not working or making loud noise

Ensure the 4-pin pump connector is securely plugged into the motherboard's pump header. Check if the pump motor speed is set appropriately in the BIOS or software. Loud noises may indicate air in the loop; try gently tilting the case to help dislodge air bubbles towards the radiator.

Fans not spinning or ARGB lighting not working

Verify that the fan cables are correctly connected to the motherboard or controller and that the ARGB cables are properly seated. Check motherboard BIOS settings for fan control and ARGB options. Ensure the daisy-chained cables are connected sequentially.

CPU temperatures are high

Confirm that the water block is making firm contact with the CPU and that mounting hardware is secure. Ensure thermal paste was applied correctly. Check that the radiator and fans are clean and free of dust, and that airflow through the case is adequate.

Cooler is noisy

Check fan speed settings; reducing fan speed can lower noise. Ensure all cables are neatly managed to avoid fan blade obstruction. A low humming sound might be normal pump operation; excessively loud or grinding noises warrant further investigation.
