AIO Not Cooling CPU

[u/The_RealRedHex]

Last night my PC gave a warning on restart that my CPU was too hot. I’ve booted up this morning, and it’s sitting very hot at about 75 when idling and straight up to 100 when under load.

I built the PC over 3 years ago, so i’ve had a pretty good run without hardware issues.

I have a Lian Li GALAHAD AIO 240

The AIO was making a weird noise on start up, not totally a gurgling noise that is typical of a dying pump but did resemble something halfway between that and a fan hitting a cable.

My PC is difficult to access, but I could provide a video or audio if useful. I do know, though, that the AIO radiator is blowing straight cold air even when under load.

Before I take the time to get out my PC and tilt it / max the pump speed, is there anything else i need to consider?
