Question

PC won’t turn on when sata is connected to aio cooler

by Vanpora Jan 15, 2020 3:51AM PST

So I bought a Corsair h100i rgb platinum, at first I saw that I had an available sata power connector before even installing the cooler. When I finished installing the cooler I plugged the sata cable in and all the other cables and the pc won’t turn on for some reason, however when I plugged the sata cable out of the plug for the cooler the pc then turned on. For some reason when I have the sata plugged to the cooler the pc won’t turn on, anyone know why this happens?
