How to Properly Adjust Your AIO (Watercooling)

Solved

Hello, so here it is, I bought a Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240 Illusion to replace my heatsink, so I wanted to know if I did it right. I connected the pump to the CPU Fan and the watercooling fans to the Pump Fan. I set the CPU Fan to DC and Smart Fan Mode and the fans to PWM. I’ll show you the 2 screens below; is it normal for my pump to run at a maximum of 2400 RPM? And my pump really doesn't make any strange noise.

Current temperature results:

Daily Use (Office, Google Chrome, YouTube Video) -> Temperature 35 - 50 Degrees.

In Games like League of Legends -> Temperature 40 - 55 Degrees.

On GTA V FIVE M -> Temperature between 60 - 75 Degrees.

I should also mention that I overclocked my processor, which is the I5 10600K, to 4.8 GHz on all cores with a voltage of 1.260.

I would also like to know if the temperatures are correct or too high.

Motherboard model: Z490 Gaming PLUS

Hello

On the manufacturer's website, I didn't see the pump's rotation speed specified, but generally they can go above 3000 RPM for most of them. After that, the pump is not supposed to operate in PWM variation; if you are indeed on DC, it should be fine. Except that your motherboard has a pump connector (Pump-Fan), logically you should have connected the pump to this connector; and the fans to a sys-fan. But anyway, it should work just the same; it’s a matter of resistance to the higher current on the pump_fan

The temperatures are normal.

For your information, your CPU is not actually overclocked, 48 being its max multiplier in turbo boost; you are, so to speak, in turbo mode all the time. Overclocking is going beyond the CPU's original coefficient.

edit: You're talking about two screenshots, but there's only one visible.

Good evening,

Yes, you have connected everything correctly; it is normal for the pump to reach only this level, it’s how it's made. As for the temperature, you should start to worry from 70-80°C. If it's a thermal paste issue, I recommend Thermal Grizzly. Otherwise, it could be a problem with either the settings or the water cooling system itself.


Sincerely,
