Good question, nah there isn't.

I have tried putting it on the top when I built it but there isn't enough clearance. The only thing I can do is rotate the radiator and block :(

I can't hear any gurgling. I'm going to try and feel out a small hum in the block. I am quite deaf though so I'll get a friend to help me with that. Then I'll check all the connections.

Less than a minute. I've just read somewhere that I should be able to feel a small hum in the block, I'm going to check for that next.

Nah I reapplied it again. Every time I take it off I clean it and do it again.

I've changed the orientation so that the radiator hoses are at the bottom (front mounted) and the block has the hoses on the side, with the hoses slightly pointing down. It's still heating up.

This is what when cooling paste looks like after I've taken it off. This first PC I've built, so still learning.

The radiator is mounted to the front (no room up top). The hoses fed from the top of the radiator (slightly higher than the block). Should I rotate this around so the hoses come out the bottom?

Hi everyone, appreciate some assistance here. My CPU has hit 100 degrees celcius and shut down. This was happening when the CPU load was 1% with nothing running. I have ran a virus scan (both Defender and Malwarebytes) and nothing there. I have also changed the thermal paste, cleaned the fans and made sure the CPU cooler was secured properly.

This has happened randomly before, then all of a sudden it's running fine again and sits between 40c - 60c for months. It seems to be a completely random event then goes back to normal. It occurs maybe twice a year.

This is what I have:

Gigabyte B650 Gamxing X MSI GeForce RTX 3060 AMD Ryzen 7 7700X EK AIO 240 D-RGB be quiet! Pure Power 11 Gold Modular 750W Power Supply

Anything else I can look for? Appreciate it.

Update: I've ended up applying for warranty for the cooler. I have tried all that has been suggested. For now, I've bought a Noctua NH-U9S cpu fan. If that works, I'll probably just leave it in there.

Thanks again for helping a confused noob girl out. Love this community!

Update 2: I've taken out the AIO cooler and replaced with a fan (Noctua NH-U95). The temperatures are fine now. I was a little worried at first as the temperatures were better but high (70-80c under 10% load). Switched off the PC, now it's back on and it's staying around 43c. It's seems some fresh thermal pastes might take a while to settle in. Thanks again everyone. Never buying water-cooling again.

This looks awesome. Reminds me of the automations in Frostpunk.

DOMS recovery (lemmy.world)
 

Hi everyone, I'm new to working out. I've mostly been walking and rowing. On Monday I incorporated body weight strength training, which included squats and lunges. Today is now Wednesday and I'm feeling the pain in my legs. How do I recover from this? Should I stick to my routine or take it easy today? I do warm up/warm down, stretch and eat protein heavy foods btw. I also really want to keep going as it helps my mental health. TIA.

If you could travel to a place and time while you're a certain age - where would you go? (lemmy.world)
 

For me I would be a young adult during the late 80s early 90s in New York. Something about the city and music.

Travelling is awesome, to travel to a place and time and live out some years would be even better.

Adopted her a year ago from the shelter. She's missing a bunch of teeth, has a wonky eye and gets grumpy if she doesn't get her way but to me she is perfect. She turns 14 soon and will live out her golden years with me.
