No product is without defects. Could be the pump is too slow (or too fast) or the fan isn't spinning as expected.
Totally agree..

Running Prime95 now, while he is watching youtube.. I also plugged in the corsair cooler to the usb. current cpu readings during start is about 75c. I enabled logging and will report back after it finishes or crashes.. which ever comes first..
-
So I ran it for an hour or so, using default settings in BIOS, no over clocking. I was able to log and export to xlsx if that would help anyone.

What kind of temps did you hit? (and did it crash, or run to completion?)

I think it finished.. It was avg 74c I have the log if you want it. This was not over clocked.. It was in default / "load optimal settings" in BIOS. Idle was avg 35-40c

That's 165.2° F.
That's damn hot

You can cook an egg.

That's damn hotIs 34 for idle too hot as well?
the log indicates "Liquid Temp" ranging from 36.5 idle, to 46.5 during testing
-
@smartkid808 165 isn't at all near cool.

Here is my desktop.

The 2U server I'm looking at right now is idling at 25°C = 77°F on the CPU (Xeon).
-
In looking at some of the reports on this CPU it maxes out at 75° C or 167° F considering this system wasn't under any major load for this time period I would think the unit is damaged.
-
And mine, way cooler on my AMD processor...

yeah, considering under light load my AMD is 23° C, that one should not idle at 75° C.

so CPU possibly damaged? I am still waiting for Corsair to get back to me.. I'm thinking the AIO went out and only cooling by the metal on the heatsink.. That was my gut feeling from the begining.. FAWK

CPU might be damaged from being run so hot. But most likely it is just a failure of the cooling system.

Has anyone been able to get corsair (or similar) to pay for damaged CPU?

Not when you overclock.
Overclocking voids your warranty options in almot every case.

On the server I'm looking at IPMI says 79°C would cause a high temperature alarm, 82°C would be critical high and at 84°C the server will shut down.

Yeah, the term overclocking means going beyond the spec. While someone could in theory allow you to do so within warranty, absolutely no company ever actually will.
