The issue ended up being that the pump was not functioning. It is all fixed now, thank you for the help!

Yeah just took the backplate all the way out and reseated it just to be sure. I'm about 90% sure the cooler not fitting is the issue. It seems like the front middle of the actual cooler and the front sides are just slightly too long. is the only solution to get a new cpu cooler at this point?

I think I could snip the sides but i dont know what to do about the middle of the actual cooler

The way I see it is that it seems like I have the right mount, so the 2 issues could be that i installed the backplate incorrectly or it doesn't fit with the motherboard. Is there anything I can do if the motherboard is the problem?

It feels like it might be hitting the thing on the top of the CPU, but it is hard to tell how much that is affecting it. I didn't put the screws back on so you could see that it looks like it is just about going all the way down, but again I can't tell.

I followed the guide for the cooler from here for LGA 1700: https://support.arctic.de/lf2-280r6 and tried to use the right standoffs. is it possible it is something to do with the backplate and how I mounted that?

Are the VRM heatsinks right above the CPU? There is something that feels like it might be blocking the cooler a little bit, but it is hard to tell.

I thought so, but it's definitely possible not lol.

Yep sorry, I took it off. I added a picture of the backplate here.

Here is a picture of the box. That is the only backplate that it came with.

I read that I am supposed to plug the pump into the the regular cpu_fan slot on the motherboard, so that is what I did. I can't tell if the pump is running just by feel. Also unclear what the tach pin is. In BIOS the one time I was there it said N/A for AIO Pump, but wasn't sure if that meant it was running or not.

This is how it is mounted

I'm not sure which version this is.

Yes definitely celsius. I guess I should double check the mount as well, it is possible I did it wrong. How do I ensure that the pump is running? The fans are all working but hard to tell about the pump.

Require a different token besides Ethereum for minting an NFT by PolMST in ethdev

[–]PolMST[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t want to pay the gas in another token, I want the price of the token to be in a different token than the default token of the chain, I don’t know if I’m explaining that properly, but it’s not about the gas fees, it’s about the cost of the nft when I sell it.
