    Core temp... it was accurate before but I'll take a look with the Ryzen Master app.
    I think the pump runs. I can feel vibration on the tubes, corsair link showed the rpm, the radiator gets hot and when I initially started it, I heard something that sounds like small bubbles making their way to the top.. That noise is over now.

    EDIT: The Ryzen Master app shows the same temp.

      Ok, so now have a pump connector, 3 fan headers and Sata Power connector... and USB 2.0 connector for the Corsair link app
      For thermal paste, did you clean the old one, and use the pre-applied paste?
      you will need to do this again... if you are still getting very high temps, probably a faulty pump(in Corsair link you can monitor the pump as well)

        Yea I cleaned the processor. I used alcohol, It was clean. And yes I used the pre-applied paste. In corsair link I've seen nothing that makes me think it doesn't work as expected. as I said it shows the rpm of the pump. Everything is connected where it belongs except the 3 fans which are on the mobo currently.

        I need to get heatpaste first and I have other stuff to do tomorrow, so I'll be able to re-apply the paste on Friday hopefully.

          I applied new paste and I get the same results. So I'll have to ask for a replacement.

            How unlucky :I
            at stock CPU clocks what are your temps?
            Once this is settled hopefully you will have peace of mind for long time.

              I've got an idle temp of 50° with and without oc. When I load the optimized defaults the temp doesn't exceed 70° but instead the processor is throttled down to 3ghz. With OC I get 88° from aida and 80 form rendering in max+vray.

                Reason why it throttles down to 3 GHz with no OC, is because of PBO
                It adjusts clocks and voltages depending on temps, and usually it considers around 68 degrees as significant temperature... which is very low, and this is why I recommend to disable it
                80 degrees Max is good for 24/7 use, but you should return the AIO.. you should be at 65-70 degrees max with fans at 70-80% or so
                You have got yourself a very good CPU, probably top 15% of samples.. you should be able to hit 4.2+ GHz in winter
                On the other hand, you have been unlucky with the AIO(life in a nutshell).. There is like 20% chance of getting faulty hardware on arrival due to shipping/manufacturing defects...etc
                It is quite popular with monitors, but can happen with all components

                  The fans are essentially running at 100% all the time. But they're very quiet unlike the once from that other AOI which were very loud when they were running at 100%. I'm looking forward to getting a working one. I'll be able to push it more.

                    Do you think they are running at 1600 RPM? (personally I think that it is a pump issue)
                    Enermax run at 2100 RPM from memory, the fans are lower quality than what Corsair uses as well. But you really made the right call sending back the Enermax.. like Jesus, look at this
                    https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16835214080
                    2 stars from 95 reviews, 48 of which are a single star reviews talking about failing that I experienced with all our units.. This is a scam to say the least
                    Look at the corrosion pictures at this link, I've taken one apart and found the same

                      Thats what corsiar link tells me at least. But corsair link also tells me the pump is running at 2100 rpm ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
                      Anyway, this thing goes back.

                        I've got my new one and it performs not that much better...
                        But still enough I think.
                        You must have been right about the pump It now goes up to 2820rpm (2100 was max before).

                        In Idle I get 40° which is 10° less than with the last one.
                        Under load I get 84° with AIDA and my oc to 4ghz.
                        The temp in this room might be 25 max today
                        Might be due to the pre-applied heat paste I might apply my own and see if I can get the temps a few degrees down.

                        The pump can be applied in 4 orientations. Is there a right one? I had it with the tubes pointing to the front of the case. Now I choose to make the tubes point upwards because the cable management was easier this way.
                        I got it sucking the air out of the case. I could turn the fans though to make them suck fresh air...

                          Hi Ihno
                          10 degrees difference for idle temperature is quite massive, you are definitely there
                          Under load I get 84° with AIDA and my oc to 4ghz.
                          Which means that with V-ray you will be getting like 75 degrees Max with these temps..should be really good
                          but first we need to make sure that your OC is using the correct voltage you set in bios, which is 1.25 volts
                          Download CPU-Z, open it during a V-ray bench run..and screenshot it here
                          if you right click on any value, you will see voltages and frequencies for each individual core

                          Might be due to the pre-applied heat paste I might apply my own and see if I can get the temps a few degrees down.
                          Honestly I don't think so, but you can try... It might be about air-flow now, which we can work on and improve.
                          We take it step by step, and eventually we get there

                          The pump can be applied in 4 orientations. Is there a right one?
                          should't matter much, feel free to choose what you like

                          I got it sucking the air out of the case. I could turn the fans though to make them suck fresh air...
                          What you have now is the correct setup, radiator fans should be exhaust. It is not good having the hot air inside the case
                          Now you have the Silent base 801 right?
                          You mounted the radiator to the top? and you have 2 fans for intake at the front? and one fan for exhaust at the back?

                          in bios or Corsair link, can you make sure that all fans are working nicely.. At max speed they should be about 1500 RPM I think, and around 1k RPM is the good spot, where you never hear them
                          you should setup your fan curves this way.

                            Yes that's the exact setup.

                            But with vray I get even more. 87° I think I will need to lower the clock to something like 3950

                            CPU-Z isn't showing the Voltage but Core Temp does. Do I use the wrong Version?
                            The voltage Core Temp shows varies between 1.200 and 1.250 in idle and is 1.200 under load

                              With 3950 and 1,2375v I get around 80° during rendering. Shouldn't be that much less performance, so I think I will settle here for now. But now the ram never boots with the right speed. (Still 1.4v) No Xamp and no memory try it. I feel a bit like Sisyphus

                                I probably know the issue now, the board is using a much higher voltage than what you entered..This should be fairly easy to fix
                                VID isn't Core voltage
                                Are you using the most up to date CPU-z?
                                what about HWmonitor?
                                See what kind of voltages it reports, and let me know
